Falling somewhere between a traditional song cycle and a full blown multimedia techno show, the duo of Mark and Marichka Marczyk fuses Ukrainian polyphony and other folk traditions with EDM, trap, dub step, and more as a launching pad to explore the seemingly never-ending blues that have long emanated from the Ukrainian steppe.
Cantus shows off their trademark stylistic range with an impressive breadth of repertoire from Camille Saint-Saens and David Land all the way to Ingrid Michaelson and Simon & Garfunkel.
Drawing is the foundation skill for all the visual arts. A lack of drawing skills often relates to a lack of understanding of spatial concepts, and with problems with artistic 'vision' – the ability to create in artwork what is in one's imagination. Learn to see and measure accurately, and some ways to loosen up. We'll explore gestural and expressive mark-making, exaggeration or distortion, and co-operative drawing using the basic drawing tools of graphite, charcoal, pen, and ink. This workshop is appropriate for all skill levels.
