In this ongoing class you will learn about Art through the ages / art history. Come once or every week.

Class Announcement -This class will end for the year just before Thanksgiving (Nov 17th last class). It will start up again in the New Year. I will only be doing one-time classes in December.

I will teach a little about the History and art through many periods of time. Using lots of various materials and different techniques to make art.

I do a short presentational slideshow on the period/era and about Art at that time. This is an ART history class, so if your child has lots of questions about that time in history I won’t know all the answers. 

I will post in the classroom ahead of time the materials needed for the weeks lesson.

Here is a look at what we will cover:-

The Ancient Romans created glass goblets that where used only for special occasions. Because they were glass, only a few have survived today.

Modern (create a Picasso Cubism drawing). Picasso painted mostly from his imagination or memory and preferred to paint people whose lives were important to him. He loved animals and even named his daughter, Paloma, which is the Spanish word for Dove).

Ancient Egypt (create a royal Egyptian Cat). In ancient Egypt, cats were linked to the cat goddess Bastet. Many households had pet cats that were important members of the family. 

Medieval & Renaissance (paint a beautiful stained glass watercolor). Stained glass is made from glass that is colored with metallic salts. Small pieces of colored glass are arranged like a puzzle to form images and designs. 

Ancient World (Prehistoric Cave Drawings), create our own using brown paper or a grocery brown paper bag and chalk or oil pastels.

Ancient Greek and Roman Art (create a Greek Vase, using tissue paper and gold paint).

Renaissance Artist/ Realism

Medieval Times (Castle’s).

This class is interactive and we will discuss each other's art.  This is a fun class that is great for completing art and learning History at the same time.

Note -  Due to drying time some projects may have to be finished out of class, but I will give instructions on what needs to be done if unfinished.
