These are the Winter 2010 classes for adults and children that I will be teaching at the Chilson Recreation Center in Loveland, Colorado...
Elementary Drawing & Painting
Learn to create depth by shading simple shapes and learn to draw what you see. Each class will be a different project, art lesson and medium including charcoal, tube watercolor, acrylic paint, and watercolor dye. Learn about line, value, mixing colors, and composition. The instructor will supply all materials needed. We do supply aprons, but wear old clothes since some of the mediums do stain. A $10 supply fee is due to the instructor at the first class.

artist within your 3 or 4 year old. Projects will
be different each week; themes will be Winter
