Message from the (Fabulous) Director of Open Door Art Studio, Courtney Yoakum
Good Morning Everyone,
I have recently met with Derrick Mortland of VSA Ohio to discuss a collaborative project with Open Door, partnering Art Studios and VSA.
The basic idea of the project is to create a collage/ mural using the illustrations/drawings created by the artists from various studios. We are thinking of creating both an indoor and outdoor mural.
I welcome any input you may have. If anyone has any ideas regarding funding and material resources that is also welcome. Also if there are any studios I have not included, please feel free to forward this e-mail.
The first step to participate would be to send me copies of illustrations from your artists. There is no theme, I would prefer we see what we receive and go from there. The more the better. Once we have enough images we will begin to create a rough draft of the collage/mural. Other details will be worked out in the process. Simple at this stage is good. Just basic pencil on paper drawings will work great.
I will be meeting with Derrick along with a couple of people from the City this week.
I think this is a great collaborative opportunity. I’m looking forward to receiving images and hearing any feed-back, ideas or questions you may have.
I will know more after the meeting.
Thanks,
Courtney Yoakum
