This class is taught in English.
This lesson provides many positive learning outcomes, including art history and culture, interaction with nature, as well as critical thinking skills.

Elements of Art - line, shape, color, texture, space, form Principles of Design - repetition, movement, balance, contrast, unity, emphasis Vocabulary - nature, sculpture, installation art, neutral colors
