One Day Intensive Creativity Workshop

A Day Like No Other: An Excursion into Art and Creativity

Have you ever stood in front of a work of art and wondered how the artist was able to create it? And if you could somehow crack that mystery, what impact would it have on your life?

This is a day in which to experience that creativity, using the medium of art; and to personally integrate a new understanding of the creative process into your own life, in order to move forward with fresh ideas, energy and strength.

Judy Singer has widely exhibited her art in galleries and museums since 1974 and she taught drawing, painting and art history at York University from 1976 to 2005.

Singer has presented this workshop to corporate executives and private groups, facilitating and elucidating with skill, sensitivity and insight.

Workshops take place at the Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen Street West, Toronto. Alternate locations can be arranged upon request.

To book your workshop, please contact Judy by e-mail judy@gotfryd.com or call her at (416) 638-9014.

Testimonials for Judy Singer

"I needed insight into a business problem and hired Judy to help me understand the production of a work of art. Through art history time travel, hands-on experimentation, and the encouragement of a professional educator, I ended up with a personal discovery more valuable than the business objective I started out with."

"One of the best things about Judy Singers' course is/was undoubtedly Judy herself. Engaging, knowledgeable and always ready to render assistance, Judy made learning fun. Moreover, as an artist herself, she could and did provide a unique and enlightening perspective on what it is and means to paint. Any course is just "course content" until the right person comes along to breathe life into it. Judy definitely seems to be one of those people. Her course was not only memorable, it was meaningful and very near inspirational. Now that's ART"

"Judy’s courses are inspired by a great balance between academic excellence and artistic freedom, to create and stimulate inspirational avenues.

"At Salon Voltaire, we had the pleasure of an evening of Judy's reflections on 20th century visual art. Word spread quickly and we had a packed house for the event. Judy's passion for art is contagious; she provoked many questions from the audience and a great discussion. We look back on it as a highlight of our spring lecture series."

"I found Judy Singer’s lecture a real eye-opener. A gifted painter, Singer brings hands-on experience to her sense of how pictures work. She is an engaging speaker with the power to refresh our field of perception. She makes gallery-going a new and exciting adventure."
