Brandon: Paint with Lisa Wood

Mini-Mentorship in Paint with Lisa Wood

Saturday, May 14 and Sunday, May 15, 10 am to 5 pm 

at Art Gallery of Southwestern Manitoba, Brandon

$30 for MAWA members

The mini-mentorship will feature critical readings, slide presentations of other artists’ works, and group critique of participants’ paintings.

Each artist will have an opportunity to show her work and receive feedback, as well as participate in discussions. This is an excellent opportunity to practice speaking about your work, to receive constructive criticism, to talk about issues specific to paint and to expand your community.

Lisa Wood is a Winnipeg-based artist who focuses on representational painting and drawing. She received her Master of Fine Arts degree in painting from Yale University in 2005. Lisa has been the recipient of many awards and scholarships, and has exhibited widely. For the last three years she has taught painting and drawing at the University of Manitoba. She is currently the Programming and Administrative Coordinator at MAWA.

To apply for the mini-mentorship, please submit:

- a paragraph about your artistic practice (what you make, the ideas that drive your work)
