The goal of this hybrid master class/residency will provide you the time to focus on your work away from the distractions of day-to-day routines and to participate in the shared energy of like-minded artists as you take your work to new levels and prepare for exhibition opportunities
This master class residency will be unique in that the timing ends with the 14th International Encaustic Conference offers ! The work created at the residency will also result in an exhibition that opens during the Conference Kick off on Thursday June 3 before the conference.
Michael David will work with you via Skype or phone for two hour long sessions (email as needed) prior to your arriving at the residency. This will allow Michael to gain a better understanding of you, your work and goals to maximize your experience. He will also be available on a consistent basis for dialogue about your work during the time in Truro, with the artwork produced being part of a final exhibition.
Focusing on your existing bodies of work and developing an increased understanding of how critical thinking , through digital presentations, one one meetings and the shared energy of your fellow residents will deepen and help you take your studio practice to next level.
