Three professional artists will be running the workshop, providing instruction and encouraging conversation.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Jamison Carter is a Los Angeles based artist working in a variety of media. Recent exhibitions include solo exhibitions at the Da Vinci Gallery at Los Angeles City College and the West Gallery at California State University, Northridge. His sculpture pairs cut rubber and jet cut glass, while his prints are made from rubber stamps printed on Tyvek. He is interested in the juxtaposition of disparate materials and forms to redefine the understanding of form and material. Jamison attended Cranbrook Academy of Art and is an Assistant Professor of Art at Los Angeles Valley College. His home and studio are in Highland Park. More at jamisoncarter.net
