Join AAP &amp; artist Mary Culbertson-Stark for an automatic drawing workshop &amp; brunch.Saturday June 25th from 11:00am-1:00pm. Each participant will create a unique mixed media work of art using various techniques of Automatic Drawing and Tachisme. Automatic Drawing or Autonamism refers to initiating art without conscious thought by accessing material from the unconscious mind as part of the creative process. Made popular by Surrealists such as Andre Masson, Salvador Dali and Max Ernst, as well as other artists from different art movements such as Miro and Picasso; automatic drawing is a technique used by artists to access the subconscious by allowing for random marks on the drawing surface to suggest unique images which are recognized and completed in conscious thought. It is based on the idea that each person has their own unique subconscious realm from which images can be accessed. This workshop will tap into the unique realm of each participant helping them to formulate an original work of art.In a brief tour of the exhibition, the instructor will discuss some of her imagery and talk about methods used to create the work. She will talk about her use of automatic drawing as a way to access ideas. Some history and background about Automatic Drawing and Tachisme will be addressed.Learn more about Mary&#x27;s retrospective exhibition, Drawn From Experience, here: <a href="https://www.aapgh.org/drawn-from-experience" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.aapgh.org/drawn-from-experience</a>For parking and transportation information please visit here: <a href="https://www.aapgh.org/accessibility" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.aapgh.org/accessibility</a>
