ASAP’s 2011 Re-Visions of LA drawing workshops will build conversations around how our urban environments are constructed and what that means to our every day lives.
Each month a new group of artists will spend an afternoon at LACE providing free drawing classes. All levels and ages are welcome as we talk about Hollywood while drawing our surroundings. All materials will be supplied.

Alison Rash is a Los Angeles based artist who grew up in rural Nebraska. She received her BA from Pepperdine University (2001) and her MFA from Claremont Graduate University (2010). Her work occupies the intersection among order, coincidence and manipulation, where the internal becomes external and the privacy of the mind becomes public. Her paintings explore the results of following systematic impulses as organizing principles often resulting on open-ended compositions that can evoke disequilibrium or self-consciousness. Her work has been included in exhibitions in Los Angeles, Japan and Italy.
Michael Carter was born in 1975 in Cambridge, MA and currently lives and works in Los Angeles and Upland, CA.

Carter has exhibited widely both locally and nationally at venues in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston. Recent highlights include back-to-back group exhibitions at Roberts & Tilton and Steve Turner Contemporary and Greene Park Gallery's inaugural show at Kunstalle LA. Additionally, he has been an arts educator for half a decade, teaching in different capacities at Pomona College, University of La Verne and Expression College for Digital Art.
