Draw - Paint - Create!
Through exposure to and study of the Elements and Principles of Art, our Fundamentals classes give young artists the essential tools to create, explore, and produce beautiful artwork that they can be proud of. These students will use a variety of media to create many exciting, hands-on projects, developing their individuality, independence, and self-expression in the process. The projects and artworks draw inspiration from History, Art History, Geography, Global Cultures, Literature and more, giving our young artists important art context, so they can learn while creating!
2024 Art Fundamentals classes will be focusing on "Art through the Ages", how art developed throughout history.
Focus points for students aged 8-9 years:
Learning how to use art tools effectively
Practising observational skills
Working on understanding of shape, line, colour, form, value, pattern, and texture
Learning about space, depth, and perspective
Adding individuality to provided instruction
