We hope you’ve had a relaxing and creative summer! We’re excited to start again our monthly meeting series. To kick things off Monica Rao will be giving a demo and talk about acrylic ink.

Monica Rao joins us for our first meeting of the MRAA year to tell us of her art journey and to demonstrate the use of inks in her works. Born and raised in Mumbai, India, Monica was involved in the visual arts (drawing and painting) from her earliest childhood years. Monica’s artistic journey has involved experimenting and exploring a variety of mediums such as acrylics, encaustics, pastels, alcohol inks, marbling inks, silk dyes, pen and ink, charcoal, pencil sketches and mixed media. Her process of discovery includes playing with each medium much like a child, and really connecting to it viscerally.
