I guess you could say I’ve retired from being “retired.”
I’ve been at a crossroads with my art career, and I want to make work that is personal, honest, and something only I could create. I was looking for a program that could help me bring my work up to the next level, and now I’ve found it!
The Canopy Program is a year-long mentorship program with a rotating roster of six faculty-mentors who work with a cohort of 10 artist-students each(that’s me.)
While two of the groups are based in New York, four of them are entirely virtual, which is why I am able to attend.
My faculty-mentor is Amir H. Fallah, whose bold narrative paintings resonate with my desire to tell stories with my art.
The backbone of the program is that each of us in the cohort will provide support and critique to one another under the guidance of Amir.
In addition, there guest artist mentors who provide critiques or classes on subjects such as art history, theory, research and writing, professional practices, and independent study.
I’m very excited to begin! With the experienced mentorship of Amir, visiting artist faculty, and insights from an my cohort, I’m ready to forge ahead in this next and most exciting stage of my creative life.
