DRAWING BASICS FOR ADULTS in 2024

Plans are underway for your chance to learn drawing basics from me at my second teaching residency at the Gmeiner Art and Cultural Center in Wellsboro, Pa! These adult classes will take place every Wednesday between June 26 and July 24th, 2024. 

About Me:

I am a Rostered Teaching Artist art with the Northern Tier Partners of the Arts in Education program (NTPAIE), a program funded by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.  Organizations can hire me to give art lessons to their population for 5 up to 20 day residencies in the surrounding area of Sullivan and Lycoming Counties. For more information, please contact me.

 

I also continue to create work under my Juried Professional Artisan designation with the Wilds Cooperative of Pennsylvania. This organization helps market rural makers in the 13 county-wide area that is the Pa Wilds. Thank you for your interest in my work!

THE STORY OF MY ART

By Stacy Kelley

I believe in paying attention to uncelebrated, but telling moments that highlight character and qualities that might otherwise go unnoticed. Mining out these nuances provides the inspiration for my work. I strive to communicate essence through gesture, a deliberate arrangement of elements, or a specific point of view. The representational aesthetic of my work leans into the philosophies of Romanticism and Impressionism. Rewarding art experiences all throughout my school years eventually led me to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania in 2000. My perpetual love of drawing, and interests in communication design and psychology have inspired me through the years. To me, art is an indispensable way to focus, consider, communicate, reflect, explore, and triumph. Welcome to my art journey!
