Two:
Bruce Marsh, Professor Emeritus and a crack draftsman, is offering a drawing marathon (info below). October 3 and 4--two puny but potentially life changing days in your schedule.

There is nothing like a drawing marathon to get you fired and frenzied and sharp on the issues. Everyone take your booties to Ruskin and fill the class.


THE BIG DRAW-RUSKIN - Studio Workshop

DRAWING MARATHON EXTRAVAGANZA– 2 Day Intensive
BIG DRAW STUDIO – 613 N. US Highway 41, Ruskin

Oct 3 & 4
Friday & Saturday, 10 am – 5pm each day
Visiting Artist: Marjorie Greene
SouthShore Arts Council
Materials & Model Fee - $60
Sign-Up begins August 25, Limit 20
Bmarsh3@tampabay.rr.com or 813.641.8635
Registration will be complete when payment is made.

Commit yourself to a 2 day drawing marathon extravaganza. This intense all day activity is open to all students interested in increasing their understanding and perception of the visual world. Participants will work in a large studio with a massive set-up and live clothed models. Projects will be executed in charcoal on large 4'x5' paper. This 2 day immersion in drawing will culminate in an informal critique and exhibit. Accommodations information is available.


MARJORIE GREENE is an associate professor in Fine Arts at St. Petersburg College, with a Bachelors Degree in Printmaking from Philadelphia College of Art and a Master's Degree from Tyler School of Art, Temple University. She attended the well-known Drawing Marathon program at the New York Studio School and has taught similar marathon based mini-workshops including last year’s drawing marathon at the St. Petersburg Art Center.
