Homeschool Art Lab is a welcoming weekly studio experience where young artists build confidence while learning the foundations of drawing and painting in a fun, encouraging environment.
Each class begins with a guided lesson from 2:00–3:00 PM introducing a new artistic concept and project. From 3:00–5:00 PM, the studio transitions into Open Studio, where students may continue working on projects, explore sketchbooks, socialize with friends, and receive individualized support while developing their creativity.
Families are welcome to stay and enjoy the creative experience together or drop off students who are ready for independent participation. Students are welcome to stay for the full three-hour studio experience or be picked up anytime after the guided lesson.
During this first six-week session, Foundations of the Artist, students will explore:
• Observation through still life
• Color theory and color mixing
• Texture and expressive mark-making
• Light and shadow
• Composition and design
• Developing their own creative voice
No previous art experience is necessary. All supplies are provided.
WHAT TO BRING TO CLASS:
• Creativity
• A positive attitude
• Optional snack and water bottle
ABOUT THIS INSTRUCTOR:
