아트 클럽 - 오일 파스텔

During this fun, creative art club, students will learn about color, shape and form using oil pastels as an art medium. Using oil pastels, students will draw and color landscapes, seascapes, animals, and objects from nature. Blending, ombre effects, vivid color and fun techniques will round out each lesson. In spring, we will make floral designs, trees, and spring scenes. In summer, we will draw the beach, seashells, and palm trees. In the fall, we will create fall themed items such as pumpkins, apples, and farm scenes. In winter, we will draw and color amazing snowscapes, winter scenes, pine trees! There is so much that can be made using oil pastels!

Students will learn about the basic techniques using oil pastel. We will practice blending using fingers, a Q-tip, tissues or a blending stump (tortillon) . We will learn basic color theory as we mix pastels. Students will learn about lighting, and create brights, highlights, and darks in their artwork using shading. Students will make a combination of soft blends and expressive marks for contrast.

Students will have plenty of time to talk to each other and to me during this club style class. I will give lots of encouraging and enthusiastic feedback. My teaching style is relaxed and I help students to develop their own artist style. 

This class is open for beginners or advanced students who may need encouragement. I encourage creativity all along the way. I will be drawing and coloring along with students and showing techniques while we paint together.
