Robinson’s finished works bear a close affinity to the masters of the realist tradition, Andrew Wyeth and Thomas Eakins. Containing few references to modern life, Robinson’s work has a timeless and universal quality, and exhibits a distinct turn-of-the-century stylistic aesthetic. The images he chooses, which refer to a bygone era where solitude and reflection were abundant, also provoke frequent allusions to the paintings of Winslow Homer and Edward Hopper.

The Windgate Foundation, based in Little Rock Arkansas, is a private foundation established in 1993 whose purpose is to advance contemporary craft and strengthen visual arts education in the United States. Education, health, and community initiatives are an additional area of focus in Arkansas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-about\">About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Windgate Artist in Residence at UA Little Rock is a semester-long residency program open to artists, designers, and craftspeople. This residency offers the selected applicant the opportunity to create work and engage with the School of Art and Design community, as well as the greater Little Rock community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary goal of the residency program is to provide time to make and develop work, and the space to make it while interacting with our community. This program provides a $30,000 stipend, housing, funding for materials and travel, studio space, and access to UA Little Rock\u2019s extensive studios. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The selected artist will have 24-hour access to a private studio and specialized areas including: a Woodshop equipped with a CNC and laser cutter, Ceramics Studio, Jewelry and Metalsmithing Studio, Smithy and Foundry, Photography Studio, and a Printmaking Studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artists will interact with students through weekly open studio hours, studio visits, and in-class activities (artists will not be required to teach courses). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Artist in Residence will run a minimum of one 2-day workshop for students during the semester. There are also opportunities for artists to teach paid workshops at the Arkansas Museum of Fine Art\u2019s Windgate Art School for those interested.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Artist in Residence will give an artist talk at the Windgate Center of Art + Design and the Arkansas Museum of Fine Art. Participating artists give one work of art to be added to the Permanent Collection at UA Little Rock.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-current-artist-in-residence-nbsp-fall-2025-spring-2026\">Current Artist in Residence – Fall 2025 – Spring 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"444\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1-444x355.jpg\" alt=\"Mark Joshua Epstein\" class=\"wp-image-5887\" style=\"width:323px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1-444x355.jpg 444w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1-204x163.jpg 204w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1-124x99.jpg 124w, https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/180\/2026\/01\/Mark-Joshua-Epstein-1200x960-1.jpg 1201w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Joshua Epstein received his MFA from the Slade School of Fine Arts (London, UK), and a BFA from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Tufts University (Boston, MA).

Recent works take the form of three-dimensional paintings and works on paper. The simultaneously discordant and harmonious shapes that play across the surfaces of my work encode reference points drawn from aspects of my Jewish and queer identities, inviting questions about the coordinates where they may intersect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my current sculptural paintings and works on paper, these entangled shapes are themselves echoes of those that appear in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Eastern European Jewish cut paper works. Made with laborious care by both amateur and professional artists, the central texts that they depicted are typically framed by intricate patterned borders, and were displayed in the home as both ornament and talisman. Taking inspiration from these works is a reclamation, one that seeks to revive a domestic history that was nearly erased by the Second World War. In responding to their forms, my practice envisions what might have been if once thriving Jewish communities in Europe had stayed intact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A different vernacular of the home\u2013the curvilinear forms of 1980s laminate furnishings\u2013finds its way into my work through an even more personal link. This same furniture was sold by my Jewish, Polish-born grandfather in the store he co-owned on Long Island. In my youth, the stylized dressers and desks that were displayed on the shop floor imprinted on me, in all of their pastel, melamine glory, the wares he sold gave shape to my dreams of vibrant futures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While these visual elements draw directly on my relationship to biological family and cultural tradition, the visualization of queerness in my work purposely eschews a straightforward correspondence to definitive forms. This stance reflects my commitment to exploring the inherent complexity of visibility politics through abstraction. The histories of queer and Jewish people alike are shaped by an awareness that obscuring markers of identity in certain situations is essential for survival. Strategic adaptation was, and remains, a vital strategy, and so the colored shapes that cloak these reliefs function in some way as camouflage that conceals their formal and conceptual armatures. Yet at the same time, these very systems of dissemblance can also serve as beacons, as invitations to new home places of refuge, solidarity, and possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/artist-in-residence\/past-artists-in-residence\/\">View our Past Artists in Residence.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-apply\">How to Apply<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications are now open for Fall 2026 & Spring 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For full consideration, submit applications by March 12th 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Application Links: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fall 2026: <a href=\"https:\/\/uasys.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com\/UASYS\/job\/Little-Rock\/Adjunct-Lecturer_R0081392\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/uasys.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com\/UASYS\/job\/Little-Rock\/Adjunct-Lecturer_R0081392<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring 2027: <a href=\"https:\/\/uasys.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com\/UASYS\/job\/Little-Rock\/Adjunct-Lecturer_R0081643\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/uasys.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com\/UASYS\/job\/Little-Rock\/Adjunct-Lecturer_R0081643<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<div class=\"accordion\">\n\t\t\n<div class=\"accordion-heading\"><button type=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\" class=\"toggle accordion-trigger\" aria-controls=\"accordion-892-content\" id=\"accordion-892\">Application Instructions in Workday<span class=\"toggle-icon\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div id=\"accordion-892-content\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-892\" class=\"accordion-panel\" hidden=\"\">\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You will need to set up an account with Workday through our site.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201cMy Information\u201d: <\/strong>Add your personal information <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u201cMy Experience\u201d: <\/strong>Only add your most recent position. <strong>There is no need to add everything from your CV as you will upload it later in the application. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li> \u201c<strong>Application Questions 1 of 3\u201d: <\/strong>We can\u2019t provide visas for international artists.

The studio sessions are deep-dive workshops tailored for K-12 art educators that run from 9-4pm Monday through Friday. Participants may choose one studio session to participate in for which they can earn up to 30 hours of professional development credit. The 2026 studio session descriptions are listed below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators is fully funded by a generous grant from the Windgate Foundation and the sessions are free to attend. All supplies for the studio sessions will be provided. We also have free on-campus housing available for those who need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSezaRxetyh_07syvAaffXvwoBy8wnyHnY5x9jYJvshMp3Dm0g\/viewform?usp=publish-editor\">The 2026 application can be accessed here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-session-1-june-1-5-2026\">Session 1: June 1-5, 2026<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Needle Felting: Tiny Produce, Soft Sculpture<\/strong> (SESSION IS FULL!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Lydia Martin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this one-week workshop, students will explore the playful and tactile world of needle felting through the creation of a small soft sculpture inspired by fruits and vegetables. Participants will learn essential needle felting techniques, including shaping and sculpting forms, building volume, surface detailing, and safe tool handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using wool roving and barbed felting needles, students will transform loose fibers into dense, sculptural forms while developing an understanding of structure, texture, and form. By the end of the week, each participant will walk away with at least one completed needle-felted fruit or vegetable sculpture and the foundational skills needed to continue exploring soft sculpture and fiber-based art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Screen Print Factory<\/strong> (SESSION IS FULL!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by David Warren<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn how to create a screenprint in the UA Little Rock School of Art and Design\u2019s printmaking studio with David Warren. Participants will learn how to create a stencil design, mix ink colors, and print a screenprint. By the end of this workshop, participants will have completed a two or three-color print on paper and fabric, and gained an understanding of the screenprint process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Pocket Studio: Mediating Self and Space through Video Art<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Clark Valentine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In our current digital age, how do we transform a tool of passive consumption, such as cell phones\/tablets\/digital devices, into one of active creation? This workshop bridges the gap between video art history and contemporary performance, exploring the relationship between the artist\u2019s body, their environment, and the digital lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants will dive into the history of post-modern performance and learn to view the personal digital device as a primary tool for sketching, mediating, and finalizing professional works. Through hands-on exercises, we will collaborate with our surroundings to capture mood, emotion, and social statements. Educators will leave with a renewed personal practice and a toolkit of strategies to help students reclaim their devices as instruments of creative expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-session-2-june-15-19-20126\">Session 2: June 15-19, 20126<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Spoon Carving<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Keenan Rowe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Come Learn the basics of spoon carving. Build skills and learn about the tools needed to create beautiful, functional, handmade spoons and other utensils. This class will focus on accessible tools so that participants can continue their spoon carving journey into the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Made to Fit: Jewelry for the Body<\/strong> (SESSION IS FULL!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Lydia Martin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In just one week, explore the magic of the jewelry and metalsmithing studio through the creation of a custom-fit ring. In this hands-on workshop, students will carve wax models to design and shape their own rings, which will be transformed into metal using sandcasting techniques. Participants will also learn the fundamentals of cast-in-place stone setting, allowing gemstones to be embedded directly into the casting process. By the end of the week, students will leave with a finished ring and a foundation in wax carving, sandcasting, cast-in-place stone setting, and professional finishing techniques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Handbuilding: Small Table Setting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Elizabeth Smith<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Introduction to basic handbuilding techniques with a focus on designing and building a small table setting to include a cup, dessert plate and small centerpiece item. The emphasis will be on making a unified set through both form and surface treatment.  If time allows we will surface the objects with slips and glaze and once fire them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>*Art History: At the Turn of the Century<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead by Dr. Lynne Larsen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this Art History session, we will discuss art and architecture from the 1870s-1920s. We’ll learn about the Pre-Raphaelites, the Symbolists, Impressionism and Post-Impressionism as well as the styles of Art Nouveau, Art Deco, the Bauhaus school, and the Arts and Crafts Movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*All attendees of both Session 1 and 2  will participate in a daily 45 minute art lecture as part of the summer studio schedule. If you register to attend one of the studio sessions above, you will also attend Dr. Larsen\u2019s <em>Art at the Turn of the Century<\/em>. Dr. Larsen has taught these sessions for the past two summers, and this component of the program has received rave reviews.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators offers high quality arts-based professional development led by art professionals in the beautiful Windgate Center for Art and Design on the UA Little <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/artways-summer-program\/\" class=\"more-link\">…<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":6037,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3463","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators - School of Art and Design - UA Little Rock<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/art\/artways-summer-program\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Windgate Summer Studio for Art Educators offers high quality arts-based professional development led by art professionals in the beautiful Windgate Center for Art and Design on the UA Little ...
