About This Workshop

The muse arrives in twilight, where and when we least expect her, at gloaming time. She arrives with the invisible secrets of air. You don’t need any special gift or skill to invoke the muse, only the willingness to sit in the sun or under the moon and listen.

Without watches or phones in the classroom we enter the twilight time before clocks. We will cultivate the habit of twilight through writing, drawing, painting, and bookmaking in a contemplative atmosphere. From professionals to brand new beginners, if you want to explore alphabets and how to “remake your world with words”, come study with me at the Madeline Island School of Art.

Below is a short video of doing “mirror writing” in my sketchbook: I am looking at the black writing while making marks in white on the opposite page. This is similar to the drawing practice “blind contour drawing”.

Even though there are many excellent reasons for not being able to enter the classroom without a cell phone or watch, if you cannot leave yours behind for any reason, this is not the class for you
