My goal as an art teacher is to expose the student to a variety of art mediums that allow the artist to decide for themselves what they like to use the most. Painting on Canvas, Sketching on Paper, or combining techniques in a mixture of styles... it is all subjective
Acrylic on paper, allows the artist to build layers and vary the opaqueness of their paint and experience the brush and various brush-strokes.
Learning how to choose the right brush for the detail or blocking at hand
Knowing when to use less or more water in application of watercolor, acrylic or pencil
Exploring perspective and details to create a visual balance
Mixing Crayon and Bright Colors to Block and Explore Color and Resist
Starting with Color Wheels and Primary tools, the students are shown finger painting and are encouraged to explore their own artistic strengths.
Seasonal Focal Points, such as Floral Arrangements are created by the students, and then from their they can build and paint their own canvas. With a variety of focal points, the students each have their own unique painting at the end of the painting session!
