Sketchbooks!

Sketchbooks are an integral part of art classes - 
they serve art students as a point of reference and place for 
idea generation.  In our classes, we use them daily to 
practice skills, collect references, apply creativity and - sketch!

Back to School

 
The 2012-2013 school year has started off strong with a great group of talented and focused students enrolled in Art/Craft as well as Intro and Advanced Drawing & Painting.  These students have completed their first projects for the year with a focus on Proportion and Value.  Working in graphite, students have successfully rendered portraits of faces and shoes!
