Al Heisenfelt

Faces from the Forest for those who have a desire to draw 
from within themselves as they witness the withered and worn, 
twisted and torn body parts of trees, rearranged into expressions that cry out for a voice.  
The voice may be prose or poetry, examples of which are amply 
supplied. Transcending their malignantly healed wounds, analogies  to the  human conditions weave in and out like spaghetti through meatballs.  
A user-friendly, sketching demonstration precedes, to guide the
participants into their own personal interpretation in art and writing.
