Art History Series 1: Artist Intent & Process with Beth Ann Short MA, ATR-BC
The 100th Monkey Studio, 110 SE 16th Ave, Pdx 97214
Did you ever look at a classic piece of art and wonder what was behind the art
and it's composition? Art making is a complex process that involves
technique/use of materials as well as telling a story with the media. In
art therapy, art therapists use assessment techniques in supporting individuals
through the therapeutic process. These assessment techniques take into
consideration many formal points in the art process as well as clinical theory
and the individual's life experiences. In this lecture series participants will
journey through multiple periods of art history with a board certified
registered art therapist examining the art and artist's experience considering
these points of assessment. Participants will learn about the
featured artist's life, process in creativity and see visual proof of the
therapeutic use of art-making in the creator's life. Expect rich discussions in
this interactive series. This inspiring workshop is designed for adults over
the age of 18. These interactive lectures may be taking in the entire
series or individually.
No art experience necessary! $25 per person (Pre-registration by March 5th $20)

In My Mind's Eye: PhotoTherapy & the Creation of Photographic Narratives with Rachel O'Rourke MA, ATR
The 100th Monkey Studio, 110 SE 16th Ave, Pdx 97214
Our own
collection of photographs may hold hidden stories; personal narratives silenced
when we were asked to smile or pose in family photographs. We may also be
inexplicably drawn to photographs we have glimpsed at as we go about our daily
lives. This workshop explores how we can learn to draw upon these experiences
to practice PhotoTherapy techniques as a form of personal exploration and how
we may apply PhotoTherapy to our professional work. Participants explore the practice
of photo projection, the reworking of photo biographical images and the use of
collage in the creation of self-portrait photographic imagery in this day long
workshop. Participants need to bring a family photograph that will be
color-copied for the art experiential.
$60 (Pre-registration by March 5th $55) All materials included.
