Join the University of South Carolina Professor and critically acclaimed visual artist, Sara Schneckloth, for an immersive drawing residency experience in the high desert of New Mexico! Surrounded by piñon and juniper, complex geological formations, a tapestry of cloudscapes, and Milky Way skies, this unique environment is open for sensory discovery. Famed artist Agnes Martin identified the land of New Mexico as her home, “working in concert with the terrain.” Resident participants will set up portable studios within badlands and sage fields, gathering earth pigments and creating handcrafted charcoal and natural paints. Through the alchemy of land, materials, and creativity, participants will expand their insights into drawing and gain enrichment through tutorials and the gift of solitude with the independent studio practice.
