This camp is designed for young artists to engage with their surroundings to produce drawings, paintings and more. Projects may include pen and pencil drawings and acrylic painting of subjects such as still lifes and portraits. Campers will also experiment with abstractness, textures, shading, values/light, mixing colors, composition and figure drawings. During the week, we will also visit the Philadelphia Museum of Art for inspiration. Our goal is to encourage artists to find and strengthen their own style of drawing, painting and creating via various projects, critiques, and on the last day, by creating an exhibition of their works in our school space.
