IIn this two-session workshop, dive deeper into the complexity of color as seen in our special exhibition: Curtis Barnes, Sr., Dayton Icon. Guests will each pick one singular color and use it to communicate everything that it is saying to them through deep observation. This workshop offers mixed media opportunities while exploring representation and meaning through color taught by local artist and educator, Erin M Smith Glenn.
Erin Morgan Smith Glenn is an associate professor of art, former VP of the board for the Dayton Society of Artists and alum of Central State University. She holds an M.F.A. from the University of Cincinnati. Erin has had her work shown in various regional, national and international exhibitions in Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Louisiana, Vermont, Texas, Virginia and Illinois, including numerous solo exhibitions. Erin is also the creator and faculty lead for CSU’s Fine Arts Study Abroad program, which has covered Italy (2022) and, more recently, Paris (2024).
Among Erin’s lifelong pursuits is to continually practice her overall creative experiences, vowing never to stop “growing as an artist and individual”, while always striving to instill this concept in her students, mentees and her three children, as she does within herself.
When not participating as an educator or practitioner, TheScarvinArtist LLC occupies much of her entrepreneurial time, as she accepts painting and drawing commissions, and creates unique crocheted and other artisanal designs and mixed media projects. Etsy, IG and FB have been her main platforms for showcasing her business exploits.
