Artist Rebecca Collins returns to The Spiritual Artist Podcast. Rebecca Collins is a mixed media artist working in mosaic, collage, watercolor and digital arts and was Chris' first podcast interview more than two year ago. Rebecca reminds listeners about the importance of slowing down and being present to the process both as a teacher and as an artist. As a teacher Rebecca is very aware of time; she wants to ensure that each student completes the process.  Rebecca has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer for more than 8 years and shares the importance of enjoying each day and recalls a lifetime of meeting deadlines and high productivity. As a greeting card illustrator, she produced a dozen/dozen card sets at one time. Learning to group her tasks as a mosaic artist.At this time, she has decided to focus more on her larger pieces that take longer to produce. Rebecca revisits her mantra, “The more you do, the more you can do.” She realizes that it's a true statement but it no longer serves her. We can choose new beliefs. As Spiritual Artists we constantly reexamine our beliefs. Rebecca notes that when we work slower, we increase our stamina and can work longer. Rebecca explains that by slowing her body she can slow down her thoughts. Mosaics are very therapeutic because they are like working a puzzle. Rebecca uses drawing to slow her mind and be present. She explains how to see by drawing upside down. It's learning to see what what is there and not what we think is there. She emphasizes the importance of seeing with fresh eyes. When receiving her 3-hour transfusions, Rebecca started a series of healthy cell drawings and self-portraits to chronicle her journey through healing. Rebecca teaches at the Creative Arts Center, Makers Connect Gallery and in her home studio.

Johanne Mangi has been drawing all her life. Painting came later, but drawing was the foundation. Dogs have always been an important part of her life. Richard Schmid famously told Johanne, “Paint what you love, love what you paint”, and she took it to heart.Johanne took that to heart and decided that she wouldn’t just dabble in her chosen subject. She’d elevate it to Fine Art. She was taught to paint from life and so is known for the presence of live dogs at my workshops. They are there for inspiration and valuable information.Johanne captured the process in the DVD “The Fine Art of Painting Dog Portraits” published by Streamline Publishing. It is a best-seller, and she just released a course on painting horses. Johanne has been fortunate to be part of well-known painting groups including The Putney Painters founded by Richard Schmid, who is considered an icon in Representational Art. This group has produced some of the best known Representational artists today. Following in the footsteps of Putney Painters, Johanne has established her own painting group to share experiences and encouragement. Her work has garnered accolades and is collected internationally. She teaches throughout the United States, including Village Arts of Putney/VT, Scottsdale Artist School/Arizona, Whidbey Island Fine Art Studio/Washington, Madeline Island School of Art/ Wisconsin and Creative Arts Center in Cape Cod/Massachusetts. Her future workshops will include England and Holland. Johanna is a juried member of Salmagundi Club NYC, Oil Painters of America, American Impressionists Society, Inc as well as the Portrait Society of America.

The 20th annual ArtsGala drew hundreds of people to enjoy the arts and raise scholarship funds for fine and performing arts students. Throughout the evening, student performances included a dance, Wind Symphony, opera, Collegiate Chorale and an excerpt from “A Little Night Music.” ArtsGala is a way for students who receive ArtsGala scholarships to say thank you to donors as well as display their craft. In the 20 years Wright State has hosted the gala, it has raised over $2.7 million in scholarships for students. Noah Carpenter, a sophomore organ performance major and recipient of an ArtsGala scholarship, said he is very thankful for the support. “I am paying for my college education on my own so being able to have any help and support is absolutely wonderful,” said Carpenter.” In the Stein Galleries, students displayed their photography and paintings. Patrons could also visit the galleries to participate in a silent auction featuring gift baskets in a variety of categories, such as food and drinks or entertainment. The money raised from the auction goes directly toward student scholarships. ArtsGala’s presenting sponsors are Barnes & Noble at Wright State and Morris Furniture Company. Other major sponsors include Chartwells, Dayton Business Journal, Emerson, Heapy Engineering, HORAN, Zoe Dell Nutter, ThinkTV, Prime Time Party Rental and WHIO-TV.

https://www.youtube.com/user/WrightStateU Irene Romanowski, a long-time music librarian at Wright State University who established a scholarship for piano students, made a return visit to campus to hear a special piano concert to celebrate her 100th birthday. Two piano students and one alumna played pieces from Chopin, Schubert and Debussy in Schuster Hall at the Creative Arts Center on Dec. 20 as Romanowski sat on stage looking on. At the concert’s conclusion, music professor Jackson Leung took over the piano and led well-wishers in the singing of “Happy Birthday.” “We are very happy to celebrate her 100th birthday. It’s really a blessing and honor for us,” said Leung, adding that Chopin is Romanowski’s “favorite composer.” Romanowski worked in the music library at the Creative Arts Center before it moved to the Dunbar Library. The library was filled with recordings and books about musicians and music history. “She helped all the students, all the faculty with their research needs,” said Leung. “She greeted everyone with a smile and helpful hands.” More at https://webapp2.wright.edu/web1/newsroom/2019/01/10/wright-state-students-pay-100th-birthday-piano-tribute-to-irene-romanowski-longtime-university-music-librarian/

Numerous new studios for art, dance and music students; light-filled art galleries; a catwalk connecting offices and classrooms on the second floor; and a spectacular front entrance are among the striking changes visitors found in Wright State University’s renovated and expanded Creative Arts Center. The College of Liberal Arts celebrated the completion of the Creative Arts Center’s two-year modernization and expansion project with an open house on Nov. 9. The event featured a behind-the-scenes look at the university’s talented fine and performing arts students. Visitors were able to see students at work in their fine arts, modern dance and acting classes, as well as during wind symphony and university chorus rehearsals. Dom Bigler, a 30-year patron of Wright State’s theatre programs visited the open house and was impressed with what he saw. “It’s just a wonderful university and we watch it just get better, better and better over the years,” he said.

Hundreds of Wright State performing arts students gathered for a question-and-answer session with two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks, who once performed on the same stage on which many of them have. Hanks spoke to theatre, dance and motion pictures students for almost two hours April 19 in the Festival Playhouse in the Creative Arts Center. The talk was part of Hanks’ visit to campus to dedicate the newly renovated Tom Hanks Center for Motion Pictures. During the talk back session, Hanks answered questions about being turned down for roles, which movies have affected him and the challenge of playing animated characters. “You can tell that he’s a great actor because he’s so communicative,” Owen Kresse, a senior acting major. “I think students are going to take away a lot from this. They will cherish this for the rest of their lives,” said W. Stuart McDowell, chair of the Department of Theatre, Dance and Motion Pictures. Only Wright State reporters, photographers and videographers were allowed to attend the April 19 talk back event.

It only does what you bring to the table.” “He’s just a force in the studio,” said Jerry Noble, director of percussion studies.
