Service Description

Instructor: Suzanne Robinson This is a fine art course recommended for students who are serious about their art and able to sit and focus for a two hour class (with a short break as needed). This class will also go beyond the attempt of accurate representation to allow for individual creativity and a chance to express our inner life. Students will work with different mediums such as pastels, colored pencils - watercolor pencils, charcoal and paint. Studies may include a still life, where they create their own composition utilizing objects meaningful to their experience, portraits, abstract impressionist painting, and other projects inspired by famous artists with a personal twist. We’ll observe examples of different genres and some of the artists that played an important role during that time, and expand and introduce new skills along the way. **Students who are interested in a less structured, more playful environment, where they can do art and make crafts would enjoy the art club environment on Tuesdays more. ** Students are responsible for their own supplies and should bring the following to their first class: • Sketch pad either 9x12 or 11x14 • Starter set of Drawing Pencils (at least 4) This set has a good assortment: (https://www.michaels.com/artists-loft-fundamentals-sketching-and-drawing-set/10125028.html • 1 Kneaded & 1 white eraser • Blending stump • Colored pencil set (either Crayola or Prismatic) • Set of Chalk Pastels (minimum of 12) To keep our guests and staff safe: - If your child is sick please keep them home. - Our classrooms & Gathering Gallery are outfitted with air cleaners with hepa filters. - Hand sanitizer is available throughout the building.
