Inspired by Kandinsky and O'Keefe

Our Modern Art Summer Art Intensive is underway and the projects look amazing!  On day 1, our students created these awesome pieces which were inspired by Kandinsky's Squares with Concentric Circles.

Day 2 was flower-filled!  Check out these beautiful hand-painted tote bags inspired by Georgia O'Keefe.

Check back later this week to see the rest of the awesome projects!

If you missed out on this camp, we'll be holding a Pop Art Summer Art Intensive from July 30 to August 3.  Register using the link below!

Go big!

At our Large Canvas Painting Summer Art Intensive!  

Choose any subject, learn how thumbnails lead to better composition, study how color can influence mood and create harmony, see how scale affects composition when transferring the final composition to an 18" x 24" canvas and, finally, practice brushwork and acrylic painting techniques.

We will show you how to take your work from sketch to canvas!

Fine Arts instruction found to have a positive effect on academic success.

A study done by Steven N. Kelly, Ph.D. has found that students who enroll in art lessons benefit in unexpected ways.  Continued participation in art classes was found to increase graduation rates as well as decrease dropout rates.

Unlike other academic pursuits, every student who participated in continued art classes received the same benefits, not just the talented students.  This positive by-product of taking art lessons shows up as higher math and verbal scores on the SAT, and positive social behavior.  According to Steven Kelly's study, there are few other areas in the typical academic curriculum that provides the same type of comprehensive overall growth and learning in the same way as taking regular art lessons.

Join our Give/Take Event on Sunday, January 28 to begin your child's Fine Arts Instruction!
