CCA’s first gallery tour of the fall wouldn’t have been the same without the genuine enthusiasm and personalized tour from the Serge Sabarsky Gallery on 79th street! (Shepherd M & K Gallery)
Art Adventures Studio students were able to explore the different modern and contemporary artists on display and recreated their favorite using various drawing media in the galleries. We even received a personal message back from the contemporary artist, George Nama:
“TO THE YOUNG ARTISTS, It was a pleasure seeing all of you working away and recreating my works. I was flattered that you were looking so carefully and enjoying oyur gallery visit. I wish you all Happy Creating and Best Wishes in the future.”
Creating a dialogue with the artist was a wonderful surprise! Thank you!
From Picasso and Kenny Scharf at Acquavella to Gustav Klimt and contemporary artist George Nama at Shepherd, we got a taste of the different techniques that can be used when working with charcoal, pastel, or even wash pencils. Can’t wait to bring this knowledge to our studio!
A very special thank you to Acquavella Gallery and David and Robert from the Shepherd Gallery for allowing us to visit and create art in front of art!
