Class Experience
For Teens 9-12 yrs
Unlock the power of drawing, the foundation of visual arts! Ideal for teens serious about their art education or considering a career in visual arts. Join our class to practice classical drawing exercises weekly, building confidence in sketching and creating exciting compositions. Students learn proportions, perspective, anatomy and so much more. Drawing is a skill that improves with consistent practice, and a full course is highly recommended. Returning students are welcome and will receive support to further enhance their skills.
Sample Class Format
- Learn how to achieve accurate proportion & linear perspective, shading and values.
- Develop an eye for line- form & tone using a combination of pencil, charcoal, or inks.
- Discover how to draw using the right side of the brain
- How to draw curves, use the contour technique & straight line approximation technique, the essentials of drawing ellipses, drawing a cylinder, hemispheres & how to employ horizontal lines & vanishing points to give your drawings a sense of volume and accuracy.
- How to use the midpoint establishment to ensure the two major halves or your drawings are accurate- these exercises help you learn how to see shape and form and develop confidence.
- In the last few weeks we will take what we have learned and incorporate them into more full realized detailed illustrations.

A focused, challenging beginner course that ranged from basics to more advanced. Instructor was fantastic- my daughter came home beaming, several new techniques under her belt and buzzing about next week- shes engaged and inspired and ready to return. Thanks again.

Excellent class and projects. My daughter had a great time and really liked the teachers.
Improvements:
Based on what my daughter said there wasn’t a ton of room for creativity- she felt like she had to stick to the way the teacher said to do the projects.
