In early March Jim Lawton, who creates ceramic vessels, sculptural forms,

programs can provide to young artists.

Secret Door Projects

Jean Cozzens, 2008
I was really interested in the work of artist Jean Cozzens linked from one of the sites on Lynn Wirth's journal. Cozzens makes prints and posters, many chronicling the buildings and architectural spaces found in the city of Providence; beautiful drawings rendered in the screenprint process. The writing that accompanies the artwork is richly descriptive of the thought behind the image. If you're wondering what/how people write about their own work take a look at her website "Secret Door Projects".

Welcome to the start of the spring term.

Here's to a creative and productive semester. Collected here are
the web journals of fellow class members where you can share
resources, interests, and your own take on the art world. The
journals are works in progress so check back often.

As the semester unfolds you'll find more information and links to
upcoming class activities and events, including guest speakers.
