KIDS DRAWING CLASS

 
 

WINTER 2023

Ages 11+

Join me at the studio for a special series of drawing classes where we will unpack the fundamentals of this satisfying art skill! This is a class that is perfect for kids who LOVE to draw! Each class we will develop and strengthen drawing techniques and work towards a final composition. Students will also practice warm-up and simple drawing exercises to expand into their creative potential and step outside their comfort zones. 

These classes are designed for students who are 11 years old to 14 years old.

This session is designed to be paired with a specific Drawing Kit, prepared specifically for the course. Students must bring their drawing kits to class each and every time. Kits include: a select range of both woodless and lacquered graphite pencils in various hardnesses, natural rubber eraser, kneadable artists eraser, pencil case, top notch pencil sharpener, shading tool and sandpaper. Students will keep their drawing kits after the course ends.

Drawing experience is not necessary but is an asset in this class. Students will leave with not only beautiful  drawings but a total confidence only an art class at The Imagination Studio can bring. 

KEY LEARNING:

  • drawing application and technique

  • development of drawing language and articulation

  • expressive visual language

NOTE

These are not draw-whatever-you-want classes. These are guided lessons which teach and build a foundation in drawing. Much like learning how to play the piano, these classes teach essential skills to give kids tools in their toolkit of visual expression. Students are expected to participate in the lesson. You can draw what you like at home.


Pre-registration required.
