Animal Art Outside at the Tannery - Mondays 3:30-4:30 ($15) & 4:30-5:30 ($15) Kids love animals. It’s a way of connecting to the world. It’s a way of understanding habitats and watersheds. Young artists in these small classes use references to draw animals. Because we are outside, there are native trees and plants that we also use for references. We use scientific drawing techniques which help young artists to “see”, to learn shapes and detailing. Each student picks their own creature from a large assortment of references. Students work at their own pace; each has a portfolio to continue art where they left off.
