Developing Artistic Expression: Grades 6-8

About Camp

Students will get the best of both worlds - drawing and painting – by moving beyond basic drawing and painting skills to explore the endless possibilities of creating art through their own unique aesthetics. Students will develop a working concept of what it means to be an artist through their drawings and paintings, and will develop new ways of thinking, seeing and creating while building confidence through exercises that help them explore different types of drawing and painting techniques. Students will also learn color theory, cool perspective, brush techniques, and how to create basic color composition. The exercises and lessons can help the experienced artist and the beginner develop new or improved drawing and painting techniques.
