Arts In Action Summer Art Club was July 21st to August 28th. The focus of the Art Club was to study the great masters by visiting museums, and galleries to view specific works on display.
After these visits, we:
1. Learn each artist’s background to incorporate an art history component.
2. Discuss the focus each artist had, and how she/he created the work of art.
3. Encourage, and guide each child to reinterpret the work of art they have studied using various approaches. Each child will create their own vision of what the artist was trying to express.
4. Open up the possibility of reinterpreting two dimensional works of art using three-dimensional approaches, and vice versa.
5. Explore how the artist used his/her media to express their vision, and visual story.
6. Learn some of the techniques that the artist used.
7. Mostly, we have fun discovering who we are through our creative process in a safe and supportive environment as a family of artists.
We are fortunate to have Central and Riverside Parks close to our studio. We will utilize these wonderful resources to learn how to create Plain Air observational studies.
