Thank you Artists of Northwest Arkansas for inviting me to share a process I have put together that was heavily influenced by images of neurons and synapses (I encourage you to do an online search for images of neurons and synapses.). I am looking forward to sharing this process with you. Whether your joy is in painting, pastel, pencil, pen, fabric, collage or sculpture this process has potential. Bring an ink pen, a sharpie, something to color with that you can use easily from a chair and let’s have fun exploring this process of abstract art.
