Instructor
Michael Gunderson facilitates these sessions. A veteran BARN instructor, he moved to Bainbridge Island after a 30-plus year career in public education in California. His degree is in the arts, and he's taught classes in art, jewelry, ceramics, and the trades, as well as serving as an activities and athletic director. He is a founding member of BARN and a past lead of BARN Woodworking.
Michael thinks of himself as a person who solves visual problems. He proposes a situation and looks to openly create a visual answer, whether it be paint, wood, or combinations of media. “Drawing is a language that creatives share,” he said. His sketchbook is a companion that he converses with daily.
