Kids Studio: Drawing & Painting (Ages 6-8) 1M26
In this studio course, students will be introduced to the foundations of drawing and painting techniques. Students will walk away with awareness of shape, line, composition, proportion drawing, and handling of drawing and painting materials. By the end of the session, students will know how to use drawing techniques as well as acrylic, tempera, and watercolor through their projects.
Students in this class will become familiar with mixed media materials, how these materials interact with various types of paper, cardboard, and canvas. This is a collaboration heavy class, participants are often working on the same piece and sharing materials. We practice mindfulness and engage in side projects and play when not working on our main projects.
