Art Hour: Ink Monoprints

Unwind from the busy-ness of the holidays with Art Hour!

If you can trace an image, you can make a blotted line monoprint. First made popular by Andy Warhol, this technique utilizes just a few unique materials that create inky outlines that can then be colored in and embellished (from Creativebug).

This program is for you if you’re looking to flex your creative muscle, to get inspired, and to spend time with one another.

Registration is required for this in-person event. No experience necessary and all supplies provided!

Art Exhibit: SARAH MCDONALD & VANESSA SPARROW

Art Exhibit at the FOYER GALLERY in the Squamish Public Library
January 23rd through March 18th
SARAH MCDONALD, ‘Soft Focus’, acrylic & oil paintings & prints
This exhibit plays with depth of field and different perspectives of the way we see things. This series focuses mostly on nature subjects and the inspiration was from spending time outdoors in the mountains, going on walks with my family, and enjoying the nature that surrounds us.
VANESSA SPARROW, ‘Vaalia’, felted fibre vessels & wall hangings
Most important in my art, aside from the simple joy of being able to express my fascination with organic shapes and textures (something I value deeply about felting) is the physical, tactile nature of the process.
