Picture this,
An ordinary photo elevated,
Developing something special with just a thread of imagination.

We’re focusing on photo embroidery artwork for this week’s People, Places, and Processes. Where photography captures the moment, and embroidery makes it timeless.

Just grab:
A photograph | Embroidery needle | Thread
Then:
1️⃣ Sketch out an idea directly onto a photo.
2️⃣ Carefully create small holes along the design using a needle.
3️⃣ Thread the needle and stitch the idea into the image.
For a little inspo, check out , whose images captured our attention, as her work beautifully stitches together photography, texture and imagination.

Draw by erasing! In this week’s People, Places, and Processes, we’re exploring subtractive drawing, a technique where the secret isn’t in what you add, but what you take away.

Sometimes you have to erase to create.

Here’s how it’s done:
- Cover your paper in charcoal
- Grab your eraser
- Erase away the highlights
- Watch the details take shape

Drawing on serious creativity, this process flips traditional thinking to reveal what happens when you take away instead of adding. Try subtractive drawing and see what you uncover!

Go from flat to fabulous with 3D art!

In this week’s People, Places, and Processes, we’re recapping how Art Appetizer students learned to make drawings that feel like they’re jumping right off the page.

And you can try it yourself right now!
Draw three objects, such as circles: One close, one in the middle, one farther away. Make the closest object larger and the farthest object smaller. Suddenly, your drawing starts to feel like a space instead of a flat page.

That’s the process behind creating the illusion of depth.
If you’re hungry for more creative inspiration, join us at the next Art Appetizer session for a taste of a new artistic technique you've always wanted to try.

Artists need space to make art. But they also need people to help bring it to life.
People to bounce ideas off.
People to inspire them.
People to challenge them.
People to share the creative process with.

That’s why community is at the heart of Art Gym, because when we find our people, magic happens.
Tonight we’re celebrating two artists who’ve come together to share their work in
one exhibition:
▪︎ Surface, Structure, Content. Two Artists Approach
Stan Meyer and Charles Counter explore how surface and structure can reveal
something more ethereal.
▪︎ Opening tonight, October 2nd | 6-9 PM
