Intro to Graphic Harvesting
“A picture paints a thousand words!” A wonderful saying that allows our minds to explore opportunity through imagination and individual interpretation. So why not Graphic Harvest more of our meetings, conversations and experience? Imbedding visuals into our daily work allows for inclusion and broadening the participation in conversation that is generated from images. Images have endless applications!
We will explore underpinning practices from the Art of Hosting and Harvesting, techniques, digital/analogue, tools, tips and the array of applications of Graphic Harvesting. How what we hear, see and notice is interpreted into images. The stories they speak. The connections they make and the many uses for practical every day use as individuals or organisations.
This 4 week workshop series held online, at 10am until 12pm AEDT, on the 16th, 23rd, 30th July, 6th August will provide you with a deeper understanding of individual journaling to live harvesting at conferences. The ability to make marks and draw is within us all! We just need to tap into our skills set open up our imaginations. What you will need:
A sense of adventure and willingness to have fun while learning.
An open mind and no particular drawing ability at all!
As a hands on workshop, you will need a space to move about, butchers paper or large paper, coloured markers (make sure if you are using a wall the markers don’t go through the page), a few different black markers and an A4 sketchpad.
Note: We will be using Zoom and Mural and you will need to alternate between the 2 application during the sessions.
Please contact one of the facilitators if cost is an issue.
