FINE ART CLASSES

Although students are welcome to enroll in a single session for a “fun art day” we provide an environment where students can build their art skills over time by attending classes with the same instructor, and allowing that particular art instructor to delvelop a relationship with each individual student in order to enhance the learning process.  During our art classes, all the students work on the same type of project at the same time, according to their instructor.  However, more skilled students will be able to embellish their projects as directed by the instructor.  Most of the art that is done in the classes is designed to be completed in the same session.  However, we work with various media, such as pottery clay and paper mache, that might require the student to continue working on the art in a subsequent class.  The students may leave projects that are either wet or that they are still working on at the school.

Each art project may use a variety of skills, however they will generally fall into one of the following categories:

Painting with various types of paint

Drawing—charcoal pencils, oil pastels, colored pencil

Paper cutting, pasting and assembly

Inks and print-making

Jewelry making

Pottery clay

Mixing plaster of Paris and painting it

Using objects from nature to make art

Decoupage

Paper Mache
