Integrating Our Creative Practice
Alexander Hall CR-2, Wednesday April 18th at 5:00 pm
A conversation
with illustrator Kelsey Wilson, painter Carrie Christian, and
photographer Angie Woodard, designed to explore how artists and creative
professionals manage to integrate their creative practices into their
daily lives. Is sustaining an artistic practice a creative feat in
and of itself? If so, what tools do we have as artists to engage in this
pursuit? Join our discussion with the artist panelists to explore these
questions. Learn how each artist identifies their challenges, and
consider what it means to seek fulfillment while balancing the demands
of a creative practice with the demands of daily life.
Kelsey Wilson is pursuing an MFA in Illustration at SCAD. She has experience as a freelancer, practices painting and was hired by James Avery Artisan Jewelry as a designer.
Angie Woodard became one of the first 4 year graduates at SCAD to obtain a BFA in Photography. She has worked in film and television for over 17 years, working on projects such as Resurrection, Army Wives, Walking Dead II, Ben 10, The Jungle Book, and Road Trip.
