My Mini Comic Book Artist

Bishop, who is three years old, fell in love with an image of Wolverine and wanted to draw it. So, we sat together and broke down this complex image into simple shapes so that he could understand it. He was so excited and very proud of himself! We decided to take a break after finally completing the drawing of Wolverine (there was a lot of brain power that was used to make him). However, stay tuned to see this masterpiece completed. I am sure it is going to be amazing!







Keeping those lines straight!!!



I was so proud of Channing's concentration and attention to detail I had to take this picture. Check out how she is holding her hand still. It's students like this that make my job so much fun!

We just wanted to show off a couple paintings being done by some of our fine art students. This class is offered to kids, ages 4 and up. They receive a great deal of one on one time with Marjon and are taught classic painting techniques in order to create a final piece of art. At such a young age they are doing such an amazing job!

First Adult Class

We are so excited to announce that we held out first adult class! This group of very wonderful and talented people were taught a basic introduction to the anatomy, proportions of the human figure, and how to see basic shapes and angles in order to draw proportionately.  There were two 30 minute poses and one final hour long pose. During the final pose the class was able to add more detail to their piece and choose their preferred paper or canvas and apply any medium (oil paint, watercolor, chalk pastel, oil pastel, and graphic pencil) of their choice. All the way from pencil to oil paint everyone created their very own masterpiece!  This was a great experience  for the adults who attended as well as me.  I have a passion for the human figure and I was so excited to be able to teach such a complex subject matter to such talented people who were so eager to learn. Thank you to all who attended and I hope you can make the next class!
