$190 Member/$210 Non-Member

Instructor: Michener Adjunct Faculty

Teen artists will learn techniques, develop skills, and cultivate the creativity that is at the cornerstone of growth in the arts. Students will take a fresh approach to their drawings and paintings, with a focus on observation, demonstrations, individualized instruction, and group critiques. Students will work with pencil, charcoal, acrylic and watercolor paint. Students will find new ways to enjoy the creative process while creating a variety of black and white and color finished artworks.  Students will visit the Michener galleries weekly, studying the techniques, images, and ideas of both living and historical artists. This class is a perfect fit for students looking to explore the arts for pleasure, to enhance and enrich their school art experience, as well as students interested in building a successful college portfolio. Students may wish to bring a cell phone or tablet for references. Cell phone policy should be reviewed with students prior to the start of class. Projects do not repeat, and many students enjoy taking this class in the fall, winter, and spring for consecutive years.
