Micah Goguen grew up in Central Georgia and obtained his Bachelors in Art and Art History and his Masters in Art Therapy from Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville. Residing currently in Macon, Ga., Micah focuses primarily on bringing art to the community and using art as a form of communication for those struggling to understand and cope with life situations. Goguen is a Certified GOLDEN Working Artist, SilverBrush Educator and an Ampersand Artist Ambassador.
Micah’s own artwork conveys his interest in the world around him as he captures moments using expressionistic and impressionistic works. Goguen strives to use imagery loosely from the daily encounters of his life and travels. Focusing on ideals of color and design, he seeks to paint “the spirit of” or “the idea of” a person, place or thing that stands out or has meaning in his life. Micah works in a range of media and teaches introductory workshops in a variety of media as well as workshop modules using combined media. Goguen teaches students atelier style in weekly classes in the Middle Georgia Area. The overall vision is to focus and rededicate back to a buy local, shop local mentality that strengthens community through unity and purpose.
Goguen utilizes his Art Therapy in groups or clusters often offered in series. Different from the technique based classes, these specialty courses have included themes such as grief, reintegration, identity, purpose, boundaries, depression and isolation. Goguen believes just like the traditional art classes, there is value and power in the group experience. These clusters focus on the curative factors of Installation of Hope, Recapitulation of Family Unit and Universality.
