My Fantasy Residency

The Ins and Outs of Tracing
Workshop Description - Ingrid Calame traces stains, spills, paint marks, and other evidence of human presence to create energetic paintings that look entirely abstract. Are they really abstract or are they exact representations of things found in the real world? Find your own marks and create a drawing or painting using Calame's process.
