Gord Sadlier -Visual Acrostic

Gord Sadlier is a multi medium creator from Norwood Ontario who has worked in the visual/design arts for over 45 years. He has created projects using watercolour paint, wood, graphic design and pen. He has been a leader with Backroad Collective and Camexicanus, teaching classes in visual art to over 100 Canadian and Mexican students since 2016. His latest project is a Visual Acrostic book, using detailed pen drawings to identify letters that form words and a phrase – creating a puzzle challenge through art that engages the participant.

Visual Acrostic Demonstration:

Using his Visual Acrostic book puzzle as a guide, participants throughout the session will contribute to a jumbo size visual acrostic image that will create the phrase “We Paint Ontario”. Using various mediums, participants will choose a letter and create image(s) that correspond with the letter to create a collective image representing the creativity of this festival and the province!
