Time’s flying folks! We just did the Halloween and what’s on our mind now? Thanksgiving Day, Christmas and New Years holidays. The first semester at schools is almost over. Do you have plans for your kids winter break? That’s right! They got to have some fun. So what I am offering is…….
Winter Break Art Camp


I’m offering an intensive art course for the children 6 to 15 years old. The course will continue for 4 consecutive days 12/26/16 to 12/29/16 with the lessons running from 6:00 to 7:45 pm on each day.
During the course we’ll work on some of the following topics:
1.Live drawing of a still life – learning to observe the proportions, shapes and colors of the objects and render them realistically. Understanding the importance of light and shadow.
2.Learning painting and drawing techniques- mixing and applying colors in order to achieve the 3D effect in a composition, using brushes correctly, using various drawing materials to the best results.
3.Free topic composition- using the previously learned skills. Learning how to express artistic intention graphically. Bringing in the visual drama and intrigue into the work of art. Understanding what makes a work of art interesting and relevant.
The classes will take place in my studio, the home of Downtown Art School. The price of the course per student is $200 including the art materials.
