How To Write Like I Do
826 Seattle Announces the 2010
WRITE LIKE I DO Adult Writing Workshop Series!

Hello David,

For the past two years, 826 Seattle has hosted WRITE LIKE I DO, a series of writing workshops for adults. Many notable authors have shared their wit and wisdom; screenwriter Stewart Stern (Rebel without a Cause), comic illustrator Ellen Forney (I Love Led Zeppelin), funny men John Moe (Conservatize Me) and Ryan Boudinot (The Littlest Hitler), musician John Roderick (of The Long Winters), and librarian extraordinaire Nancy Pearl (Book Lust) have all contributed.

We are pleased to announce a whole new year of insight, instruction, and inspiration!

Come spend two hours with local (and not so local) literary nonpareil who will share tips on writing like they do. At no extra cost, you'll have an opportunity to practice your skills and maybe even rub elbows with the next Faulkner-in-Training. Regardless of your forte or favorite genre, whether you're an aspiring writer or seasoned professional, you'll find these workshops worthwhile.

Buy a season pass for the full experience or single tickets for the classes you find most compelling. And know that all proceeds for these workshops go to support the work of 826 Seattle, which is teaching young people in our city the art (and skills) of writing. Individual workshops are $30 and a season pass is $210 (more than a 20 percent discount).

A full schedule can be found below:

Come All Ye Toonheads!


It's the end of the year as we know it, but does that mean Cartoonists Northwest will be doing something "sketchy" for the final meeting of 2009? Well, yes and no!  How 'bout something completely different? How 'bout the chance to create your own Christmas ornament or holiday gift out of glass?

Yes, that's right: finally a new way to channel some of that "hot air" we all exhale in great big puffy clouds! We'll be meeting for our December gala at Blowing Sands Glass Studio. Everyone is invited to blow their own pumpkin (approx. 4" diameter), float (approx. 6"-8" diameter), or ornament (approx. 4" diameter) for $20 per piece (they're giving us a $5 break off their regular rate). No experience is necessary (literally a 3 year old has done it). We will need to know by Thursday, December 17th how many folks will want to participate, because the studio hosts need to know how many blowers they'll need. E-mail us your name and how many folks you'll have participating.


And that's not all! We'll run through a brief agenda, and then plow (nyuk!) right into the festivities. We'll share snacks and drinks (please feel free to contribute by bringing food to share with the group). This year, the Holiday Spirit means we can enjoy holiday spirits! Yes, we can have alcoholic beverages this time around, as long as we drink responsibly (this is a glass studio, after all). CNW will provide non-alcoholic drinks and utensils. Finally, we'll play some games, including the time-honored "White Elephink" gift-exchange game! We'll explain the rules at the meeting, but for now, if you'd like to play, plan to bring a wrapped, unlabeled gift to the meeting to contribute to the gift pile. Gifts should be inexpensive, humorous items. Bring a smile to someone's face (I know: cartoonists are a "tough crowd" too, eh?)! Come and send 2009 on its way at CNW's Super Glass Blast!


What: December meeting of Cartoonists Northwest (Monthly meetings on the third Saturday of every month.)

When: Saturday, December 19th, 2009 - 6:00 PM

Booze: Yes! Encouraged! There's a lot of glass, though, so try not to be weebly-wobbly.

Cost: Free! (Unless you sign up for glass blowing; then it's $20/piece.)

Location: Blowing Sands Glass Studio

5805 14th Avenue NW, Seattle, WA 98109

206-783-5314

At the corner of 58th and 15th in Ballard, behind St. Alphonsis. We'll be in the middle room with the garage door, but everyone is welcome to wander, shop, or blow glass. See you there!

Dear CNW members, family, and friends!  It's with great pleasure that we announce the results of the vote for the Presidency of Cartoonists Northwest.  The election took place on Sat. Nov. 21 at the regular monthly meeting....and MARYBETH BARR won unanimously!  Marybeth brings fresh energy and enthusiasm to the CNW ship of state, and all CNW members (and prospective members) can no doubt look forward to an exciting new year of CNW happenings under her leadership.  Outgoing President Keith Curtis presented a heartfelt...and hilarious...farewell speech that recapped the eventful years he spent as a CNW officer.  After the vote the group celebrated by watching a short flick about Will Eisner, and the history-making animated film "Gertie the Dinosaur" (1914, Winsor McCay), followed by food and drink at the Hurricane Cafe. 

Marybeth has begun assembling her new cabinet of officers.  New Secretary Nat Cook will replace outgoing Secretary Jeff Hawley.   Other outgoing officers have volunteered to continue their duties in the interim.  So, this message is also a CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS!   Outgoing V.P. Stephen Prescott and Treasurer Jeff Hamill will train and assist whoever steps up to those respective plates.  Please consider volunteering for these positions.  CNW Needs YOU!  If you're interested, please contact Marybeth to discuss, at

Stephanie Maxwell Visual Music

November 23 at 8pm
Artist attendance!


Stephanie Maxwell specializes in hand-painted experimental abstract animation. After performing a variety of painting, marking and engraving techniques directly onto 35mm film stock, Maxwell re-photographs each frame of the film using a digital feed camera and digital frame capture, sometimes employing additional manipulations such as bending and twisting the film, layering film frames together, and progressive alterations of the image during the frame by frame re-photography.

This screening will feature selections from Maxwell's work from 1984 through her two newest works from 2008, as well as a twelve-minute short documentary about Maxwell's filmmaking process, with footage of the artist at work.
 


Take a class with Stephanie Maxwell
Direct on Film Workshop
Sunday, Nov 22, 12-4pm
Instructor: Stephanie Maxwell
Tuition: $20/WigglyWorld members, $25/general

Max Attendance: 8 Direct Animation is a unique filmmaking technique in which images, textures and patterns are hand-inscribed on the motion picture film itself, using paint, markers, etching tools, collage materials and other media. Maxwell discusses and demonstrates basic techniques of direct animation and elementary principles of the frame-by-frame process of animated filmmaking. Both 16mm and 35mm film stocks are made available to workshop participants for experimentation. In addition, cameras are provided for re-photographing handmade films to allow artists to digitally manipulate original imagery. During the workshop excerpts from well-known historical and contemporary works are viewed. Information about Stephanie Maxwell and excerpts from her works are available at http://people.rit.edu/sampph/

I thought you might like this web page about An Evening with Berkeley Breathed reading ''Red Ranger Came Calling''. I found this page on the http://www.vashonchamber.com/ web site.

You can go directly to it by clicking on the following link: An Evening with Berkeley Breathed reading ''Red Ranger Came Calling''

Tickets will go fast for this event, so buy now! Berkeley Breathed ("Bloom County", "Opus") used to live on Vashon Island, and when he returns to Vashon for this book reading, it is certain to be a sellout. Tickets benefit the Vashon Community Care Center, a very worthy cause. I'll be there, and hope you will be, too. Thanks! Jeff Hawley

You can’t mail it in!  You can’t phone it in!  You can’t dropkick it in!  NO!  You have to be THERE!  Come to the Cartoonists Northwest meeting in November and cast your on-the-spot vote for the office of President of Cartoonists Northwest!  Exercise your franchise!  Hear a stirring speech from outgoing President Keith Curtis, whose rhetorical skills are, some say, like hearing a space marine channelling Obama, FDR, and Dr. Bronner simultaneously.  Gaze with awe and respect at the NEW President, whoever she or he turns out to be!  By the by, you may wonder who the candidates are.  Well, the answer is simple…the candidates are anybody and everybody who wants to run!  And running could not be simpler.  Just stand up and throw your hat in the ring.  CNW has always been led by volunteers, and you can help keep up the tradition.  Take a turn at the CNW helm!  Don’t be scared, it’s not the Titanic.  And remember, the campaign, voting, and inauguration all happens in this one meeting, so it’s painless no matter what the outcome.  Be there, and be a part of CNW history in the making. 

 

But wait, the fun of the November meeting doesn’t stop with the election.  Other surprises lay in wait.  Bring a favorite cartoon DVD and if we have time, we’ll watch cartoons on the big screen.  Will we have reports from the hinterlands (i.e., The Writers Block Group)?  The hoopla never ends at CNW meetings!  See you there!

 

 

ALSO ON THE AGENDA: 

  • Cartoonists review each others’ work and vote for ‘Best of the Northwest’.  Bring your art and enter the friendly competition!
  • Other news and stuff, guaranteed to be of a cartoonishly edifying nature!

Hi Everyone,
 
Our usual Penstuff folding party is this Thursday November 12th at 5:30pm at BurgerMaster in University Village.  We always need the help, so we hope you can make it.
 
We chat and share and discuss topics that help with CNW, so everyone's input is always appreciated.  All while folding and labeling and stickering our monthly newsletter.  it can be fun.  And Dick help a lot, too, by printing and folding Pensuff for us as well.

This is the time of year when we should be starting to think about when to have the Toonies (Thanks for the reminder, Dick!).  I believe we usually have them during April.,  Maybe the 2nd weekend or 4th weekend?
 
Before we select a date, does anyone know of any cartoon conventions or shows that may be a conflict for us during April or May?  Please check on that, if you would.  I would really appreciate if folks would get back to me.
 
Thanks sooo much.
 
Maureen

I write to invite you to the opening reception of CLIMATE CHANGE COMICS in SEATTLE this Tuesday evening. I append a description and attach a (relatively) small .gif file of the poster.

 

I’m happy about how the show came out, but I still think of what might have been also. I suspect that the global crisis  story (climate change, peak oil, sixth wave of mass extinctions,  etc.) will be with us for some time. I hope we might work together on something fun in the future.

 

Regards,

Leonard Rifas

Draw, Dabble, Doodle at the 10th Annual Drawing Jam

Artists of all ages and abilities are welcome at this 12-hour art-making festival December 5 at Gage Academy of Art.

Seattle, WA | October 9, 2009 — Try your hand at art during the 10th Annual Drawing Jam — a 12-hour art-making marathon — on Saturday, December 5, at Gage Academy of Art on Capitol Hill in Seattle. From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Gage provides all the essentials for a full day of art creation.

 

In 2008, the Drawing Jam was named a “must do event” by Seattle Magazine, and no wonder why. Three floors of space, art supplies, food, models, inspiration and entertainment are all included with admission — just $10 for adults and free for teens and kids. Whether you draw, dabble or doodle, head to the Drawing Jam to give drawing —or even sculpting — from the model a try.

 

A cast of over 50 models will rotate through several studios. Dancers, musicians and performers act as gesture models, nude figure models pose up to three hours at a time, and costumed portrait models sit for drawing. Costumed models include the “Stars of Seattle” — a group of local celebrities, which in the past have included troupe members from Teatro ZinZanni, The Stranger’s Dan Savage, the SeaFair Pirates and Sylvia O’Stayformore. 

 

The Drawing Jam at Gage Academy of Art is geared for all ages and abilities, and families are especially encouraged to come. Kids will have a room of their own to draw, paint and craft during the day, and teens will also have their own dedicated studio for all 12 hours of the event.

 

Even if you don’t create art yourself, this is a unique chance to see an art school in full swing. Studios will be open to tour, and you can catch a glimpse of art in the making as award-winning Gage instructors conduct drawing, painting and sculpting artist demonstrations. Three exhibitions will be on display as well, including a selection of paintings by local artists included in Gage teaching artist Mitchell Albala’s new book Landscape Painting: Essential Concepts and Techniques for Plein Air and Studio Practice.

 

No matter your age or ability, come to Gage and spend an hour — or the entire day — dedicated to creating art! Check back at www.GageAcademy.org/drawingjam as details emerge.

 

Buy your tickets at the door: $10 for adults, $5 for students with ID, and free for kids and teens. Free parking provided.

 

Presenting sponsors of the 10th Annual Drawing Jam at Gage Academy of Art are 4Culture and the Mayor’s Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs. Event sponsors include Artist & Craftsman Supply, Bellevue Art & Frame, Dakota Art Store and Daniel Smith Artists’ Materials.

 

Gage is located at 1501 10th Ave. E., on Capitol Hill next to St. Mark’s, Seattle, WA.

 

 

About Gage Academy of Art:

Celebrating its 20th Anniversary year, Gage Academy of Art is a non-profit art academy offering classical instruction in the principles of drawing, painting and sculpting. Gage offers a wide variety of classes, workshops, ateliers and more for artists of all ages and abilities. Gage Academy of Art won the 2007 Governor’s Arts Award for excellence in art education.
