Lifelong Learning Lecture: “The Agony and Bliss of the Creative Process”
Coco Berkman: Artist/Printmaker
Drawing is key for professional artist Coco Berkman. She makes many bad drawings and scribbles before she unearths an image that has a certain meaning and magic worthy of her undivided attention. Working with Japanese carving tools and printing on an etching press, her reductive linoleum prints take several months to complete. Coco is familiar with the great struggle most artists wrestle with when choosing to dedicate their lives to making “Art” and she has a few nuggets of wisdom and anecdotes to share with us about her creative process.
