Sharing Our Stories: The Art of John August Swanson
Session Description
In this biographical workshop, Swanson will discuss and give an overview of his 50 years of fine art print making. He will examine the development of his artwork, and reflect on how he continues to redefine, reexamine, and revise ideas while creating his intricately detailed paintings, serigraphs, etchings, and giclées. He will exchange thoughts on the changing forms of his art, and the reaffirming of Christian values, such as: caring for each other, acting as peacemakers, and listening to each other. From his representations of Bible stories to his urban scenes of everyday life, and his circus and music works, he uses his visual gift to share our stories, and to show us that which brings us together
