In Fall 2019 we are exploring the feel and sound of color as it relates to our own self portraits.

Our Self-Portrait drawings start with a “one line” drawing that we fill in with colors we hear.

I work with, teach and learn from kids!

I am an architect, sculptor and professor.  

My architecture is about conversing with materiality.  

My sculpture is about connecting with earth.  

My teachings are about sense reverie and further developing our ability to visualize from left to right brain perspectives.

Sense Reverie is a program committed to empowering alternative sensory perspectives as a way of viewing the world in a wider and wilder way.  3 Autistic students from Minneapolis Edison High School participate each week.  We draw, imagine, interpret and sculpt together.  The program runs 6 weeks for each group.  They walk away with many drawings and a sculpture.  The perspectives are truly wider and wilder!

"I love the texture of the colors rubbed on my hands."    Mustofe

"I didn't think I could draw well, but all of my drawings are so beautiful!"  Judas

This Fall 2019, we are drawing and sculpting self portraits of ourselves and color.
