CURRICULUM
MONDAY: Young artists will discover their ability to draw with techniques in pencil and charcoal while learning the development of drawing through Art History.
TUESDAY: Our intention is to take the student to another level in their art making. They will begin to experience the power and complexity of color. Through demonstrations the student will acquire an understanding of color theory as well as develop a personal color style.
WEDNESDAY: We will journey through major Art Movements with images, lectures, and discussions geared toward the development of art from the cave paintings of Lascaux to the action painting of Jackson Pollock.
THURSDAY: Students will examine the important developments of Master Artists. Gathering an understanding of how to achieve a similar style as well as why that style change is significant to Contemporary Art.
FRIDAY: We reserve Friday as Fun Day with visiting Artist lectures and workshops. Students will be painting with music and learning the techniques of Contemporary Artists.
