SUMMARY:Newton Art Association Presents Ingrid Christensen – Becoming the
  Artist You Are Meant to Be
DESCRIPTION:Ingrid Christensen – Becoming the Artist You Are Meant to Be 
 Professional Development Presentation by Newton Art Association There’s 
 such an array of styles and genres of art that finding your place in the a
 rt world can feel overwhelming. We can fall into the trap of chasing style
 s that turn out to be both unproductive and unsatisfying. Drawing on examp
 les of work that feel deeply rooted in the people who made them\, Ingrid w
 ill open a conversation about how such authenticity takes shape. Along the
  way\, she will explore practical ways artists can begin to recognize and 
 bring forward their own instincts and interests in their work. Join Ingrid
  for this lively and practical presentation that will help you block out u
 nhelpful advice and fruitless avenues to discover the artistic path that
 ’s right for you. Ingrid Christensen is\, first and foremost\, a painter
  of light. Her work is an ongoing exploration of light’s ability to elev
 ate even the most mundane object into the glowing subject of a painting. I
 ngrid focuses on still life and figurative genres\, painting from life whe
 never possible\, but knowing that all paintings are\, ultimately\, the wor
 k of memory. In the time it takes to make a painting\, flowers fade and mo
 dels leave. What’s left is the impression that the artist has of the ori
 ginal scene\, stripped of detail – a distillation of the subject. Her fi
 gurative work is often based on photos from her family’s history\, with 
 memory and nostalgia playing important roles. This personal connection inf
 uses her paintings with a depth of emotion and storytelling that resonates
  with viewers. Ingrid is in demand as a workshop instructor both online an
 d in person. She teaches online at The Winslow Art Center and has taught w
 orkshops in Canada\, Mexico\, and Italy\, working with painters from all o
 ver the world. Her goal is to inspire students with the wonder of the craf
 t of painting\, making them look beyond the surface of their art to its ri
 ch\, inner depth – to the potential for painting to act as communication
  and self-discovery. Ingrid wrote\, and was featured in\, several Winsor &
  Newton Masterclass videos filmed in London\, UK. Her art has won both nat
 ional and international awards and has been highlighted in Modern Impressi
 onist\, International Artist\, Avenues\, and Arabella magazines. She has a
 lso contributed articles on painting and creativity to Artsy Online Magazi
 ne. Based in Canada\, Ingrid’s work is represented in Canada and the US 
 and is held in permanent public and private collections worldwide. Topic:
