This workshop introduces participants to the expressive practice of gesture drawing using ink and unconventional tools. Working from live or reference figures, participants will create a series of quick, energetic drawings that capture movement, posture, and the essence of the human form.
Using extended tools like dowels and brushes encourages full-body movement and a more intuitive approach to mark-making. Selected drawings will then be developed further using layered ink techniques to explore tone, form, and depth.
No prior experience necessary, just a willingness to experiment and work freely.

About the Instructor:
Greg Lendeck is a sculptor, mixed-media artist, and arts educator whose practice blends traditional studio methods with intuitive experimentation. His work spans sculpture, installation, metalwork, ceramics, foundry casting, mixed media, and digital media, and has been exhibited in galleries, community spaces, and public installations across the U.S. and internationally. Lendeck creates work that merges material and conceptual exploration with a personal cosmology, connecting people to place, memory, and ecology. Each piece evolves from an intuitive process into a larger non-linear narrative that explores the intersections of nature, science, and human experience. While materials vary, his art is visually and thematically connected, often intertwining natural elements with human-made structures and occasional figures representing broader ideas. Every work carries a story that extends beyond immediate awareness, inviting reflection and interaction. Through his studio practice and teaching, Lendeck strives to create environments that encourage experimentation, dialogue, and a deeper understanding of the relationships between materials, concepts, and artistic problem solving. His goal as both artist and educator is to inspire curiosity, creativity, and meaningful engagement with art as a dynamic, participatory experience.
