Connect & Create: Drawing Your Day Workshop

Each day of our life offers creative inspiration, if only we take a pause to look!  In this uplifting drawing workshop, local professional illustrator Lauren Beck (Ren & Ink LLC) will lead students in exploring the art of sketch journaling. By first learning simple line and shading techniques, along with tips and tricks for successful sketch recording, the class will use visual journal prompts to capture the small (but meaningful) moments, celebrating the daily delights of life with art.

Lauren Beck, of Ren & Ink LLC,  is a lettering artist and illustrator based in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Working both by hand and digitally, Lauren’s charming letters and imagery can be found in weddings, small businesses, or on a grand scale as a typographic mural. Most recently, Lauren has partnered with Crayola to create a 40-page coloring book full of detailed flower compositions.

With her degree in Art Education, Lauren conducts workshops at Pennsylvania  studios and nonprofits, teaching anywhere from brush and script lettering to digital illustration on the iPad. You can find Lauren’s work at www.renandink.com.

This event is part of our Connect & Create Series which offers a brief exploration and creative conversation around a work of art from the LUAG collection, followed by a hands-on activity and/or creative response.
