Teach Each Other
acrylic and mixed media collage on canvas, 18” x 24”, 2021
The sides include artifacts from the 2016 workshop where the roots of this painting were created.
This painting began using art created by after school teachers in a workshop I taught on behalf of the San Francisco Department of Children, Youth, and their Families. The participants did some scribbling and cut out shapes to represent the feelings and values they wanted to offer the young people they worked with. The composition evolved over time as I tried to make it all work as a painting, but the sentiments remain.
