Drawing and Painting Program

This step-by-step, guided instructional approach suggests that all images can be broken down into simple pieces, like a puzzle. From these pieces, we encourage students to create a complete work of art using a variety of media, including markers, colored pencils, graphite, charcoal, oil pastels, acrylics, tempera paints, watercolor, paper and textiles, found objects and fun embellishments!  A variety of subjects will be explored which may include still life, landscape/cityscape, human form, animal kingdom, sea life, plants and abstract.
