Realistic Drawing & Painting: Session I

Discover the artist in you! In this exciting 8-week course, students will experiment with colored pencils, charcoal, and acrylic paint to create one-of-a-kind masterpieces! Learn to draw and paint both from observation and imagination to create portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and more. Along the way, you’ll build skills in color theory, value, key/tone, and composition– the building blocks of great art! A sketchbook is required.

This course prepares students for Portfolio Development I. For ages 11-14.
