Description

Drawing & PaintingStudents explore methods of visual image-making, using a variety of drawing, sketching, and painting techniques inspired by reference, observation, and imagination. Purposeful play is used with the youngest students to develop the use of tools such as pencil, marker, pastel, paint, and ink, as well as life-skills such as confident self-expression, understanding feelings, and effective listening skills. As students progress, understanding is deepened through increased self-direction, discussion of artists, art history and the use of symbols, abstraction, and representation.
Character Design & IllustrationStudents learn how to create expressive digital artworks in our MacLab using a digital tablet, stylus pen and easy-to-use, industry-standard software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Kid Pix, and Krita. Essential computer literacy skills will also be taught while they explore fundamental drawing & padarkinting concepts in the digital sphere such as digital brushes, colours, and blending layers. Students will also learn to apply design to their digital art to create movie posters, book covers, story illustrations, and more.
