Mondays OR Tuesdays 3:45 - 5:00pm

This course is the beginning of a yearlong curriculum that focuses on drawing in the first quarter and then builds to include printmaking, painting and sculpture in Winter and Spring quarters. Core Art classes are structured like an artist’s studio: a place for students to explore materials, processes and ideas through the guidance of the teacher. During the fall quarter, drawing skills are the focus of the curriculum. Drawing is the foundation of the art program for a number of reasons: it perfects fine motor skills in the younger student, discipline in all ages, and teaches students to see objects and the world around them in ways they never have before. Students are active participants in their learning, choosing projects, materials and ideas to suit their particular skill level and experience. If you have been through the art studio before, come back, there is much more to be learned and experienced! Veteran students will find new projects and challenges awaiting them.
