Main projects offer references of landscapes, seascapes, still life objects, portrait, anatomy, animals and fantasy characters. Students work in their choice of media: oil, acrylic and watercolor paints; pastels; pen & ink; color pencil; charcoal; conte crayons; graphite.

ART PROJECTS:

Outdoor Landscape Painting Workshop For Teens: "En Plein Air" Ages 14-18

This is a 5-day workshop where students will learn all the stages of painting an oil landscape scene in nature's light at 2 locales in Walpole. "En Plein Air" is French for "in the open air."  If rain, we will have class back at the outdoor studio tent relevant to landscape painting. Art materials, French easels and shade umbrellas will be provided. Headphones welcome.

All other weeks offer students their choice from any of the projects below and includes a daily group "core learning" sketch study of still life and anatomy.

Illustrating the Imaginative Scene – Students learn the process of creating an illustration scene transformed from their imagination or literature concept. This includes planning and designing a storyboard sketch used to direct the final rendering of the finished artwork.  With the aid of understanding traditional art fundamentals, students will learn how to research and use the right images and/or the setting up of objects under the right lighting to create a more realistic and unified scene of people, animals or mythological creatures interacting in an imaginative environment. Illustration may be rendered in any media including paint

Drawing & Painting Animals & Creatures  –
Students choose from a menagerie of animal images including pets, backyard wild, safari & zoo animals; fish & sea creatures; birds, amphibians & reptiles; winged or crawling insects.  Students will learn to understand and see how to set up the shapes for drawing the anatomy, see and layer in the values for building the 3-dimension form; then learn to detail in the textures such as fur, scales, or feathers for achieving a more realistic likeness or in capturing an expression of the animal's characteristics. Students work in their choice of media: Oil*, Acrylic, Watercolor Paints; Pastels, Pen & Ink, Color Pencil, Conte Crayon or Charcoal. *Oil paint restricted to age 12+ or instructor's discretion.

Landscape/Seascape Painting in Oil*, Acrylics or Watercolors
Create a landscape or seascape while learning the techniques for a more realistic and painterly, or expressive interpretation of sky, clouds, trees, meadows, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, ocean waves…etc. Students will learn about proportions, shadows, highlights, and understand perspective and depth of field for creating a more atmospheric painting. *Oil paint restricted to age 12+ or instructor's discretion.

Draw, Paint and Illustrate Still Life
and Objects
For students who like to draw or paint more realistically, this class focuses on how to create a better likeness of still life objects using their choice of media. Household objects, flowers, sports equipment, cloths, toys, fashion accessories, things from nature…. Students will learn to see and render a better 3-dimensional form; make metal surfaces look reflective and glass transparent; learn techniques to depict shiny and dull, textured or smooth, wood grains or stone; liquids and droplets. A Trompe L'oil scene will also be set up as a choice. Students are welcome to bring in their favorite things, toys, or musical instruments.

Studio Teen Weeks:
A popular sell-out for high school teens who prefer to create amongst their peers. Students enjoy working at their own pace creating artworks of their choosing in a relaxed environment with their peers. 1 class day will be dedicated to starting an outdoor landscape painting, and finishing in the studio on other days if the students chooses. Students select from any Painting, Drawing or Illustration project to create artworks depicting Human or Animal Portraits, Landscapes, Seascapes, Cityscapes, Architecture, Interiors, Still Life or Objects from Nature. Multi-media and 3D Art. Group sketch activities include portrait, anatomy from plaster sculptures and still life studies.  Individualized instruction is given to improve each student's art skills and rendering techniques.
