Sometimes, no matter our best intentions, we watch art slip off the homeschool schedule. Weekly classes at Riverwood Studio help ensure that doesn't happen. I often hear that my art classes are the highlight of a student's week. Students are challenged to build artistic skills, problem solve, experiment with new media, interact encouragingly with others, and learn some art history and appreciation. Each year, we experiment with many 2-D mediums, such as charcoal, acrylics, oil and chalk pastels, printmaking, copper foil, and watercolors, and build skills with 3-D mediums such as clay, plaster, and fiber arts. We practice drawing skills as Step 1 of most projects. |
