In studio art exploration, enjoy making art and learning about its history in this class! Each week, students will learn about a new artist or art movement and create 1 or more works inspired by theirs. From Surrealism to Pop Art and beyond, students will be inspired to explore their creativity and learn new techniques. Different media will be used including graphite, charcoal, acrylic paint, watercolor, ink, collage, clay, and so much more. The ultimate goal is to learn, explore, and have fun. *This class is a part of our Certificate in Fine Arts Program and will give each student one point towards their CiFA certification.
