ABOUT THIS CLASS:
A unique partnership between Woodstock School of Art and the Rock Academy!
Be part of a special group creating artwork for the Rock Academy’s upcoming tribute to DEVO; an experimental and dissonant art punk band. Participants will be collaborating on group projects, such as a backdrop for the stage, props as well as individual work. All artwork will be displayed at the Rock Academy’s Performance in the spring. WSA students will be on a special guest list and get in for free. Patty Mooney, co-conspirator in creating this program is a veteran art teacher and local artist. Patty taught art for 20 years at Saugerties High School, is an active local artist and worked for record labels in the early 90’s as an Art Director and Graphic Designer for Indie Labels such as Roadrunner Records, Rough Trade, Caroline and Mute Records.
Students should expect to work outside our studio time to complete projects and be in attendance for all four sessions.
Students have the opportunity to create a piece of artwork from concept to completion and increase their skill in a chosen medium. Students will have the experience of collaborating with artists their own age, create not only artwork but community.
All supplies will be provided. Ages 13+

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Patty Mooney lives and works in the Woodstock / Kingston area. A sculptor who relishes the open-ended creative process, Patty uses an eclectic palette of materials both manufactured and natural to solve expressive, aesthetic and practical problems that arise in her evolving oeuvre of work. She is a seasoned educator having recently retired from teaching art at Saugerties High School for 20 years. Her teaching style leans on guiding students through the creative process to explore and discover their own answers.
