Working with the Community

We worked with the home building firm Lennar. When they had an open house we were hired to create chalk drawings where the community could work on it too. Mostly it was when the parents did the house questioning the kids and young adults came and hung with us. We focused on home and heart imagery. Please consider hiring us for your next corporate event. For more info, please contact: [email protected]      

Oakland Zoo

Chalk drawing and animals go together well, so does chalk drawing and Earth Day @ the California Oakland Zoo. For the last 2 years we have had the wonderful opportunity to draw at the  Zoo. Two times for Earth Day where we created pieces that the community could collaborate with Drawing on Earth. Two times for Day of the Lions, and once to bring awareness to a vote on banning plastic bags, sponsored by the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Some Principals come out and see what's happening, maybe they will draw for a few minutes, some Principles never come out at all. Seeing Barbara drawing was such a treat. And I saw what she was doing, I do the same thing. [...]

That's 12 x 40 feet (3.7 x 12.2 meters)... very impressive. Last year we drew 2x times at the Museum (Museum: means home of the Muse). Here is some of the art and a time lapse or two. Two projects: 1) Global Aids Benefit for Pangaea 2) Alameda County Art Commission and the Alameda County Office for Education - conference for their annual San Fransisco Bay Area National Arts in Education week. #ArtIsEducationBecause     We were supplied with the logo, were able to get into [...]

Chabot College

Painting Class, Supplies, Creative Spirit Blessings with Prof Mark Lewis Wagner MA  Chabot College - Hayward California FaceBook Page Link : Chabot College Painting Last year Drawing on Earth raised money to buy art supplies for the Chabot College painting class that Mark Lewis Wagner (founder of DoE) teaches. Many community college students do not have extra money to buy sometimes expensive art supplies, some of which they might not use much of. "I still have a tube of oil paint that my mom used in college that I am using, they can last a long time," Wagner says. The students are aware of what we did, what our sponsors did in buying some of the supplies. We [...]
