Every week in this unique ongoing class students will learn about artists from around the world and throughout the ages whose birthday is/was celebrated that week. As a class, students will learn about the artist and their work through a short presentation. Wee will learn interesting facts about their life and how their work represents an important element or principle of art. Students will be able to interact throughout the discussion to share their thoughts and anythings they notice about the art. Then, Ms. Stephanie will lead students through creating an artwork inspired by the presentation. Students will be shown how to use supplies and techniques. Each student is encouraged to create unique pieces that reflect their personality. This exploratory style class will keep learners engaged by creating exciting, new and interesting art projects using a different materials & techniques each and every week.
