Join us for a relaxing session of fall sketching and watercolor studies at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum’s beautiful Research Center garden. By demonstrating observational studies of autumn leaves, dry twigs, and seedpods typically found during this seasonal transition, Sudeshna Sengupta will guide participants in exploring various sketching and painting mediums including watercolor pencils, graphite pencils, brush-tipped sketch pens and watercolor. The intimate setting of the garden in a smaller group will allow for plenty of individualized attention and interactions.

About the Instructor:
Sudeshna Sengupta’s career as a teaching artist spans multiple decades, continents, and cultures that inform her pedagogy for decolonizing studio art. She received her Master of Fine Arts degree in 1985 from Visva-Bharati, an international university founded in India, by the humanist poet Tagore, the first non-European Nobel Laureate (1913). After teaching art and design at college level in New Delhi, Seattle, and California, she taught at NMSU-Alamogordo, where she established its first intaglio printmaking studio in 1995. Since moving to Santa Fe a few years ago, she has been teaching credit courses in online studio art at the Santa Fe Community College. She also conducts workshops and short courses and presents lectures and community-based art events for various age groups with civic, cultural, and community organizations in the US and in India, often with a focus on multicultural and inter-cultural experiences that emphasize human, cultural, and environmental connectedness through creativity.
