Summer Morning Camp at Red Bow Studio 2012

9:30AM to 12 Noon Tuesdays-Thursdays

COST: $175 Per week includes all materials.

During the summer morning camp we will focus on a single area of art and create artwork portraying what we have learned.  These classes are for children ages 6-10 (or with permission) who are serious about their artwork and would like to spend their mornings creating in an intimate studio setting with friends.  We will be learning techniques and skills in each area that they will be able to use beyond the class.  We will also have a lot of fun.  Due to studio size, there is a maximum of six students per week.  Sign ups are per week and you may sign your child up for as many or few weeks as you like.

Week 1 Printing June 26,27,&28

In the first week of mini-camp we will learn about printing with foam, plastic stamps and stencils.  On the first day we will work with brayers and stamps to create simple prints.  The other days the campers will create their own designs and then print them.

Week 2 Paint A Canvas July 17,18&19

The second week of camp will be spent with acrylics painting a canvas. On the first day we will sketch out our ideas and draw them onto our canvas.  The second and third days will be spent working with the acrylic paints, focusing on color and form.

Week 3 Still Life & Portrait Painting July 24,25& 26

Our third week will focus on still life painting.  We will learn all about the face and body and use it to create drawings and paintings.  By the end of these three days, your camper will be confidant in drawing the human body.

In week four we will create a shrine out of a cigar box.  Each child will choose a theme for their “shrine” and then paint and embellish the box based on their ideas.
