Marisol Ortega
Incorporating analog play in the digital world workshop

In this workshop, you’ll be exploring the analog world of loose watercolor painting and mark making.

Take a break from your day-to-day video calls and activate a creative outlet. Join Marisol Ortega for a hands-on workshop where you’ll learn to think about organic shapes, creating interest with positive and negative space and compose your own bouquet of flowers. After painting, Marisol will discuss her personal process of scanning artwork, cleaning it up and how she combines them into a digital analog composition.

This hybrid process of analog and digital is key to Marisol’s work as a painter, designer, and illustrator, and has helped to bring a unique hand-made aesthetic to the many digital applications of her work.

This on-line workshop will be live-captioned and include ASL interpretation.
