Art Talk featuring Christine K. Miller

The Visual Art League of Lewisville presents Art Talk with fiber artist, teacher, and author Christine K. Miller on Tuesday, May 12, 7 p.m., at Lewisville Grand Theater, 100 N. Charles Street.

The visual arts are a dynamic, exciting place for individual expression and the communication of important ideas to viewers of art. Miller will introduce attendees to Studio Thinking, a set of 8 Studio Habits of Mind that will strengthen your own art making and take you deeper into your creative process.

Attendees will learn:

• The habits of artists
• How artists make decisions when there is no right or wrong
• Which Studio Habits do artists already use consciously, and which habits can be strengthened
• Working with the Studio Habits is a deliberate way individuals can power up their artistic practice

Miller is a life-long fiber artist with experience in weaving, sewing, basketry, embroidery, felting, dyeing,
knitting, crochet, and fiber sculpture. She is a former visual arts educator with local, state, and national arts education recognition. She continues teaching in K12 programs through her Visiting Artist presentation of "Fibers in 21st c. STEAM applications."
