Life Drawing for Kids

This course was an exciting balance of learning how to see and how to capture contours, apply tones, and develop shading to make objects 'pop' off the page. With the basic understanding that in order to draw well, one must first learn how to see, students were engaged in fun looking exercises that challenged them to use their eyes and minds to collect information about the objects, people, and places around them. They discovered how to see the world in a fresh, new way! Different approaches, tools, materials and techniques were presented and explored using a diverse range of media, from pen and pencil to color explorations in pastel and paint.
