This weeks campers have showed a new level of intensity. In the mornings the high schoolers have been studying Drawing and Painting. Mr. Jeff has set a high standard for his students and they have worked diligently sketch after sketch. Campers have drawn gestures, cartoons, still life, and perspective drawings. After completing their drawings the students have used a variety of paints to add a little color. Tuesday we took a tour of the galleries. The campers asked great questions and challenged others views about different art works.
In the afternoon Mrs.Kelly is teaching a Mixed Media class. Yesterday the students had their first critique. It took a little bit to get them speaking freely but once the ball got rolling each comment, opinion, and bit of advice contributed to a hearty learning experience. The campers are working on a series of perspective drawings that they will later turn into paintings, prints, or collages. Their creativity is unlimited!
