About our Art Development Courses
Our way of working -
Initially we invite you, and/or your child to come and discuss how we work in a twenty minute meet and greet appointment before the classes begin. You, and/or your child can bring along a few recent artworks to show us or show us from your phone. We discuss what your main interests are and what you may want to begin to focus on. We talk about what materials are needed and the costs involved. We also ask you to fill out a contact form if you decide to join us for the coming term/s.
At the beginning of the course and throughout, we dicuss what the students individual interests are and then start researching to initiate the process of creating around those interests. Once ideas begin to emerge by sketching from their imagination, drawing from reference materials, or by doing observational drawings, students can then expand their exploration into final drawings and onto other disciplines, such as painting, mixed media or sculpture. This may depend apon which mediums their subject dictates or the techniques or issues/ideas they want to explore further.
The students tutor will demonstrate the techniques they will need to employ throughout each chosen project.
Throughout the terms there will be a mix of tutor directed group projects, as well as the individual student initiated projects.
We will also study other artists who display similar styles, techniques or interests with their work, to help inform the students direction.
Our Art Development courses are aimed at - Tweens, Teens and Adults
Because students work on their own projects and at their own pace, I have mixed ages within most of the classes.
Class sizes are kept to no more then eight students per class.
This course is also ideal for college-age students who need help with their Art-boards and to create and accumulate work for University Portfolios.
