Emily Donovan ; Each year brings new discoveries for me as I study and create art with natural dyes and pigments There are my favorite, tried and true plant and insect materials that I return to again and again and also new discoveries. With the support of a Creative Support for Individuals grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board I am creating a series of videos that capture what I’ve learned within a year and how this has enhanced my process, creating new ideas and ways of seeing urban and rural enviroments. Here a few snippets of my process and inspiration I find while outdoors and a preview video of what’s to come. Stay tuned for the series coming soon!
