Art for the Non-Artist

Bey Hall

Can’t even draw a stick figure? Struggle with perfectionism?
This isn’t your average art class—it’s a creative empowerment workshop created especially for those who think they can’t draw. You’ll learn to draw with both technical skill and confidence—in just one session. With a single feather as your subject, you’ll learn to slow down and really see—translating its shape and texture into a drawing through focused observation. Each drawing will reflect the individual behind it—created entirely by your own hand, and completed with real technical skill, even if it’s your very first time.

All materials provided. No experience needed.

Pysanky: Learn the Art of Ukrainian Egg Decorating

Bey Hall

Come celebrate the spring at Monmouth University with this unique opportunity to learn the seasonal ancient art known as Pysanky. Pysanky, also known as Ukrainian eggs, is an ancient folk tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years. This meditative and communal experience is unlike any other art process and for many this workshop marks the beginning of a spring time family tradition that can be passed on and enjoyed for years to come. This tutorial will cover the history and traditions surrounding Pysanky, a demonstration, and independent practice session. The instructor will provide a variety of eggs, dyes, and tools. Participants will turn real eggs into works of art using a wax resist method similar to batik.
