Emily Rose Michaud
Read all about Emily Rose Michaud in this Apt613 Q&A

My name is Emily Rose Michaud and I'm a visual artist and educator who works to make cultural programming more present in schools. I specialize in art + nature projects, and since 2004, I've offered visual art workshops in and out of the institution, as well as worked with youngsters, teens, adults and seniors in all media, for leisure, as emotional outlet, education, and portfolio development.
Explore environmentally and socially engaged art, cultivate agency on ecological issues, foster creative confidence, independent thought, deepen artistic skills. Suitable for subjects in art and nature (earth sciences, ecology, biology, geography, history). Working with colour, texture, drawing, perception, measurement; explore the relationship between person and place.
As every project is different, a meeting with the artist is required to determine the parameters of the project, the number of participants and the number of days required to complete the project.

AVAILABLE ONLINE: School Workshop - Drawing – Reflections on Water
Have you ever looked at a water molecule under a microscope? There are six sides, just like a snowflake. In this drawing workshop, students will create a six-sided hexagon with a center pattern. Based on reflections from the micro to the macro cosmos, this pattern can be found in nature as seen in biology, geology, chemistry, physics and astronomy. Students will sketch drawings to learn more about water. They will be encouraged to complete their work at home after the workshop.
