Still Life Drawing Night
Thurs 8/21 6-9PM
Instructor: Tyler Keylon
Are you tired of never seeing a flower, really? Do you value being close to trees? If so, you may want to join us for Open Still Life - a night of looking at objects in physical space, and not on screens. As it turns out, reality is super 3D - Not flat! Things abound, and they can be perceived, finitely, in time. You can go into a room full of people, and try to draw things with burnt wood, or ink. If you want, you can work really hard to make the picture look like the thing, but it will never look just like it - that's impossible! Even though it's impossible, we still like to do it. Choose to, with us!
Tyler Keylon is a painter, printmaker, writer, and bookbinder based in Richmond, Virginia. Themes and subjects range, depending on the mood. When he’s not studying anatomy or moseying through the Mellon Collection at the VMFA, he’s yapping (intentionally) and trying to find joy in anything and everything.
