Using Art to Stimulate the Imagination: Case Studies from the Ancient Greeks
Dr. Diane Cline, Graphic Recorder and Thinking Partner, Over The Horizon Consulting LLC

The ancient Greeks, who were very aware of the power of viewing, used artwork as a means of stimulating the imagination in order to find their "flow," which would lead them to a higher order of thinking. Diane Cline will take the audience through case studies of vase paintings from Ancient Greece that will explore the similarities of Ancient Greek communication forms to today's graphic recording.

Attendees will learn:
	Graphic Recording take-away lesson: Less truly is more
	Visual imagery as a catalyst for meaningful conversation
	Sensory stimulation through color, light, musical sounds, fragrances, and tastes is a catalyst for creative thinking
