about
My name is Emily Grenader. I am an art student at The Cooper Union. For a project, I am going to have a show in the school gallery of drawings of pictures of people. The pictures will be sent to me by strangers over the internet. The drawings will be done by friends of mine who are in art school. All of the drawings will be done by talented people who I know and respect as artists, and then given away to the person in the drawing.
steps
  1. I receive your photo sent to draw@emilygrenader.com (details).
  2. I ask my friends to choose and draw one of the collected images.
  3. I collect the drawings for the show on December 12th at Cooper.
  4. You come to the show on December 12th to receive your drawing and to see the other drawings.
  5. I take a picture of you by your drawing before you remove it, to give a copy to the artist who made your free drawing and to use as documentation of the project.

November 10th 15th, last day to submit images.

December 12th, 6:00 p.m., the show opens. After 7:30 p.m. the work can be taken.
