Event Series Drawing as a Tool for Seeing: A Workshop with Illustrator Pat O’Donnell

Drawing as a Tool for Seeing: A Workshop with Illustrator Pat O’Donnell

Drawing is a tool for seeing—an integral aspect of artistic expression that captures the fleeting essence of ideas and refines developing picture concepts. Using Norman Rockwell’s methods as inspiration, illustrator/game designer Patrick O’Donnell will explore creative, technical, and narrative approaches to drawing that train the eye and the hand and allow the mind to roam free. The program also includes computer drawing demonstrations that transition traditional ways of working into today’s technology.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
