This summer, teens are invited to step into a more focused and exploratory studio experience through our Art Uncovered Series. Designed for students who want to grow their skills while maintaining creative freedom, this series blends weekly skill-building with a larger, ongoing piece that develops over time.
Each month will focus on a primary medium:
- June: Drawing
- July: Painting
Students can attend all sessions for a deeper experience or join as their schedule allows. Each class is designed to stand on its own while also contributing to a larger body of work for those attending consistently.
This class is ideal for teens who want to:
- Build confidence in their artistic abilities
- Explore new techniques and materials
- Work on a more developed, layered piece over time
- Experience a studio environment that encourages both independence and guidance
June: Drawing Focus
Each week introduces a new concept that can be applied to a larger drawing:
June 2 — Observational Drawing & Seeing Shapes
Learn how to break down complex subjects into simple shapes and improve accuracy through observation.
June 9 — Value & Shading Techniques
Explore light and shadow using a range of values to create depth and form.
June 16 — Texture & Mark Making
Experiment with different techniques to represent texture and surface quality.
June 23 — Composition & Finishing a Drawing
Bring everything together by refining composition, contrast, and focal points to complete or elevate a piece.
July: Painting Focus
Each week builds skills that can be layered into a larger painting:
July 7 — Color Mixing & Palette Control
Learn how to mix colors intentionally and create a cohesive palette.
July 14 — Brushwork & Application Techniques
Explore different ways to apply paint to create movement, texture, and variation.
July 21 — Layering & Building Depth
Understand how to build a painting through layers rather than finishing all at once.
July 28 — Final Details & Personal Style
Refine work, add details, and explore how to make a piece feel personal and complete.
Throughout the series, students will have the option to:
- Work on one larger evolving piece
- Or create multiple smaller works based on weekly concepts
This flexible structure allows for both drop-in participation and long-term growth, making it a perfect fit for summer schedules.
All supplies are included.
