2019-2020 School Year: Art Exploration
Art Exploration students build self-confidence by making their own creative choices and all projects are designed with this in mind. A project is considered successful if it allows kids to explore different art processes in a fun setting and results in all original work. Most will take two classes to complete, with each day revolving around a special art element or principle.
Fall Session: clay fish, building/lighthouse print, wood sculpture with motif, graphite lizard drawing
Late Fall Session: clay mask, mushroom ink drawing, cow acrylic painting, self-portrait watercolor, (mixed media)
Winter Session: clay, printmaking, mixed media, non-wood sculpture, (watercolor)
Spring Session: collage. mixed media, relief sculpture, acrylic painting, (drawing)
