In this class, students will be introduced to a wide variety of mediums, techniques, and styles. This includes drawing and painting mediums, such as watercolor, acrylics, gouache, pastels, pen and ink, and charcoal, but also printmaking, paper cutting, clay, and weaving, to name just a few. Students will learn basic art concepts and techniques such as color theory, shading, sketching, and perspective. We explore art from different genres, specific artists, past and present, and art from a wide array of cultures around the world.

At this age, our goal is to expose them to various forms of art and materials they may not have at home or school. We combine step-by-step projects with time to explore mediums on their own, using their own creativity. Projects are typically short, usually being done start to finish in a single class so that we may have variety each month.

The projects done in this class and Art Exploration I usually overlap. Art Exploration I is for grades 1-4, so often the same project is done but simplified for that class, or maybe the students in this class are given a bit more creative freedom. Since grades 3 & 4 overlap both classes, you may determine placement based on your assessment of your child’s skills.

Is your child more outgoing and maybe just looking for an after school activity? For grades 5 and up we also have Art Club, which includes similar projects, but is a little less structured and students are given a bit more freedom to take projects in their own direction, in an open, more social environment.

This is an ongoing class, meaning a varying set of skills and new projects are taught each month.
