Description:

No prior experience needed for this class. If your student took Artful Journeys last year (’22-’23), this class will provide all-new and different projects than they made before. In this class we will journey through the incredible world of art to experience a variety of styles and media, using both well-known and lesser-known artists’ works as our guide. The goal is a well-rounded art exposure by creating art pieces in the styles we study. Students will learn and apply the basic elements of art (line, shape, form, texture, color, value, and space) while also learning about various artists and art movements throughout history. This class will seek to cover a little bit of everything from realistic to abstract, traditional to modern, thoughtful to whimsical, colorful to monochromatic. Students will use paint, oil and soft pastels, colored pencils, markers, as well as other supplies. Projects will be fun and engaging, and we will create artwork every week. All supplies are provided in class.
