Young
Artist Program
For
students between the age of 5 and 10, I develop instructional and thematically exciting
subject matter that will be appealing and highly educational at the same time. In
a friendly group situation, through these projects I give a basic understanding
of all aspects, such as portrait and figure painting or perspective, in an easy
and fun way. For instance my project “Universe of Planets” will teach how to
shade bright colors of pastels in order to paint 3 dimensional geometric spheres.
Once motivation takes place, even very young children can learn more easily,
quickly and joyfully than in most other art programs.
…and
because children love to learn and use new things all the time, my students will
get to use a large variety of great art material and explore mixed media within
the course of my programs.
In classes for students age 11 and older, the studio art experience focus is more complex. Young artists refine "know-how" in the genre of "realism" through the development and execution of projects such as multi-color linoleum printing, illustration, and painting on paper and canvas. Themes include studies of still life, perspective, figure, portrait/self portrait, and collage work. Subject
matter within the projects leaves space for student’s individual choices and
expression.
