Texture & Repetition: Stencils are OK

Join artist Micah Kraus for a hands-on workshop exploring texture, repetition, and layering through stencil-based mark making.

Approaching creativity through the lens of a printmaker, Kraus’s practice centers on process, iteration, and experimentation—often combining analog and digital tools while allowing words, phrases, and visual elements to evolve through repetition and inversion.

During this session, Kraus will combine a process demonstration with a conversation about the artwork currently on view at Peg’s Gallery. Participants will experiment with stencils created by the artist using a variety of mark-making techniques, exploring the possibilities of texture, repetition, and layered imagery.

As the workshop unfolds, Kraus will share insights into his creative process and discuss the work on view, inviting questions and conversation throughout. This playful and exploratory experience highlights the importance of observation and reaction as ideas develop, offering participants a chance to see how artistic process and visual expression connect.
