Painting FUNdamentals
Express yourself while exploring oil painting. Practice the basics of color theory, proper application of paint, and fundamentals of composition and design. Because each student is unique, projects may be altered and one-on-one instruction will be given to suit each student’s skills, talents, knowledge, and interest level. This camp is for 10-14 yr olds. Due to the Kimball Arts Festival, this will be a 4-day week with no camp on August 1.
Sculpture Meets Upcycling
In this camp, we will practice thinking outside of the box by turning recycled materials into art. Each project will start with a limited number of supplies from the recycling center, and a prompt. For example, students could be given lightbulbs, wire, and duct tape, and asked to create “movement”. The artists will be challenged to see objects for their shapes rather than their functions. They will strengthen their creative brain by defining a single-word concept with simple, raw materials. Seeing the world for its possibilities is a problem-solving skill that is valuable in all aspects of life.This camp is for 10-14 yr olds.
