Open Art Studios at the Library




Saturday, October 10, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Library Community Room
Artists: Kelly Daniels, silver point; Mark Cullen, printmaking
Ms. Daniels has been painting since childhood and shares studio space in downtown Madison with 6 other artists. Ms. Daniels will work with a process called silver point, used by Leonardo Da Vinci, among other masters. Children will have an opportunity to try silver point themselves.

Mark Cullen began printmaking as a student in public school and favors simple processes that result in truly unique works. He enjoys the sketching of a print plate and heads out to Pine Bluff Studio to do the actual print. Mark is inspired by children’s artwork, animation, cartoons, Matisse, Modigliani, and Japanese art, having spent a year in Japan as an English teacher.
