On-Campus Summer Art Program 2023

CALLING ALL EMERGING TEEN ARTISTS!

Join us in person for our annual Summer Art Program, instructed by Emily Michels and Johanna Spinks!

This INTENSIVE program is designed for serious teens who are interested in learning the basic fundamentals of drawing and painting. Instructors will focus on each student’s individual trajectory. We will work on group projects and welcome the use of the class for independent projects or study. Students will receive the basic drawing foundations and expand their knowledge of techniques in value, color, and composition through drawing and painting.

Projects may include master copy studies, still life and using casts. This program incorporates art history lessons and demonstrations in a variety of wet and dry media. Students work at their own pace with a goal of finished project(s) for a portfolio or personal achievement.

*New students signing up for the second and third sessions only with limited drawing/painting skills will be given a combination of class curriculum and personal projects based on skill level. Current sample artwork will be requested for assessment.
