COURSE REGISTRATION

Our programs are designed to provide a whole creative experience. We do not focus on one aspect of art but apply basic fundamentals to each and every project. Whether we are doing paint, collage or sculpture, we encourage  pre planning of composition, balance and perspective. We are project oriented and promote quality of workmanship and completion no matter what the individual skill level is.

The storefront windows have allowed us to present the children’s art pieces to the neighbourhood and have gained a lot of fans and evoked so many joyous compliments over the years!

The class preparations focus on projects that will develop from week to week. The students will be encouraged to plan and execute their designs with a sense of colour and texture, balance and composition. Appreciation of art history is an important part of our learning process. Students are given references to artists and mediums that span from Renaissance to contemporary. When possible we align our project to an eventful art exhibit visiting our AGO and or ROM.


 We Survived!

We had a great spring session staying safe and healthy while creating beautiful art. The Monday and Tuesday group worked on a Sculptural Mask Relief on canvas which encouraged thoughts on a subject that best suited their hopes and dreams. The popular theme spoke of the earth and its environment.

 

Tres Cool!!!!!!


A little thing we did while the doors were closed.

I asked the kids to send me drawings of what they thought Covid looked like under a microscope. A way to look at our adversary in a creative light. Bacteria and virus cells are quite surprisingly beautiful in colours and patterns.

The above is a what our young artist Flora thinks  the Corona virus looks like.   

And we miss the kids!
