THIS TEACHING ARTIST DON’T STOP! Exuberant yet thoughtful, Todd Berman of The Art Don’t Stop is unstoppable! This teaching artist’s work was recently chosen to fill 10 San Francisco Muni busses with art as part of the Muni Art project. Calling his work on the project, titled “City Of Awesome”, community art, Todd explains the process, “Like the community of San Francisco, the art is a group effort. My role is to rally people to contribute drawings of themselves taking action to make the city more awesome. Then, I cut and color each self-portrait and collage them into a painting, resulting in a chaotically colorful scene of community awesomeness in action.” Here Todd shares with musician and teaching artist Ami Mollinelli his unique path into visual art, co-creating, and teaching.
