Welcome to the 2019 Alaska Cross Content Conference at West High School in Anchorage, AK, October 25th and 26th with follow up activities at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Sunday, October 27th.
Kristin Link is an artist and scientific illustrator. During this hour session participants will get to draw from life, and consider how drawing helps one see. Drawing helps in understanding how something really looks and functions, and the language of visual arts provides tools for explaining what one sees. Participants will work to create descriptions with pictures and words, expanding our ability to communicate. We'll discuss applications for observational drawing with science and other subjects. Kim Sweeney is a long-time AAEC board member who will assist and introduce the Alaska Arts Education Consortium.
