Artist Talk & Demonstration: with Joe Abboreno
Join illustrator and muralist Joe Abboreno for an engaging talk and live demonstration on his creative process. Joe will share how he uses the doodle grid technique to transfer and enlarge his artwork for murals — combining playful, freeform doodles with digital imaging to accurately bring his designs to life on a grand scale. Attendees will get an inside look at how this inventive system helps transform sketches into vibrant public art that inspires and delights.
