River Mumma - Folklore & Creativity Workshop Event

 

Guani Folklore of the Islands

Guani Folklore are tales from the islands of my parents and family from the Caribbean. Storytelling is a tradition worldwide.

Guani Folklore Workshops use storytelling as a method to invite and engage in my culture and an opportunity for participants to use the folktales as a narrative to learn new methods for creating artistic skills.

The female form to abstract

In this exciting Storytelling Art Workshop I invite you to explore the art form of the female form and its representation in a simple exploration of figurative Art, open to all. An enjoyable two hour workshop focusing on the female body and how we define female. Learn to sketch from stick women to your interpretation of abstract with the narrative of the mystical mermaid Rivah Mumma, the mother of fish and the inhabitants of the river beds of Jamaica.
