Get Goin’ With van Gogh! Elementary Drawing Class meets weekly- ONGOING (ages 7-11)
Each week in this ongoing class students will create a different theme-based drawing. During the first class in the series students will have a brief introduction to the artist, Vincent van Gogh, followed by a drawing activity. Students will develop a drawing in 5 progressive steps. They will learn that drawings can also be broken down to 5 basic shapes. During the second half of class, students will learn basic coloring technique. They will learn three ways to color a finished drawing. Coloring is just as important as the drawing! Your child will be astonished by the bright, bold colors in their completed masterpiece! Classes will focus on different drawings that follow the seasons with different themes. It is my hope that I can instill a love for drawing as well as a sense of confidence in your young learner! The cognitive skills that they master when drawing can also be helpful when learning at school. 
You are welcome to join any week that interests you or stay with us for several more weeks to gain a broader understanding of different drawing techniques. Below is a list of theme-based drawings that we will cover over the next several weeks. The list will continuously be updated so you know what we will be drawing and choose classes that most interest you! In the materials section you will find everything that you need for these exciting classes! I can’t wait to meet your young “PICASSO”!
