Has an old perfume or photograph from a different era in your life ever pulled you back to a long-lost memory? A now-distant age?   Did that sensory stimulus bring the feeling you had at that moment and the faces of the people you were close to then and make you wonder how you'd forgotten about it all this time? Now, do you want to travel back in time and recapture one special memory in the form of an art piece? Then this class is for you.

What we're going after here isn't technical mastery—we're trying to capture a time and a place (and the feeling from a bygone era.

So, together, we'll be gathering sensory stimuli that can inspire our art piece. The stimulus can be a perfume you used in high school, polaroid photos or candy you loved as a kid—anything that can take you back to a certain age and draw from that perspective. (I'll be cracking open my scented diary from middle school.)

After that, we'll select the place we want to time travel to and gather our references.
Once we scan everything and have it on our software, we'll choose colors that best convey the mood we're going for. We'll start our art with blobs of color, experiment with placement, and refine our work to the level of detail we're happy with.
