ArtBreak: Enhancing Traditional Art with Digital Tools

Explore how a variety of apps and digital tools can be used to help artists working in traditional media. Artist Kris Walker will lead a discussion of the ways in which technology can assist the contemporary artist, from creating references to organizing artwork catalogs. We’ll discuss a wide range of methods by which artists can use digital tools to enhance the creative process, explore new ideas, and streamline some of the “work” involved in creating art.

Kris Walker is a photographer, illustrator, and designer with over thirty years of experience producing a wide range of creative projects for clients across the country. He also has taught design at Southwestern Michigan College and currently teaches Photoshop and other software in the Kirk Newman Art School’s Photography Department.
