Welcome! I'm glad you"re here.



Art is a wonderful way to let your child have fun while developing skills that will enhance their overall learning. As students move through various art lessons they will be developing a love of art that enhances fine motor, problem solving, and communication skills. Their imaginations and creativity will begin to blossom and before you know it you'll have a little Picasso of your own!

A peek at some of our work....

For these paintings we studied pointillism and the artist Georges Seurat. Seurat was the first to paint using dots of color. Art critics in the late 1800's coined the term pointillism when they criticized this technique of painting. This technique relies on the eye/mind to blend the colors to form a detailed picture.





 Just for fun...thinking about lines and shape.










Artists in this post range in age from kindergarten to 3rd grade.
More art work will be posted at a later date. 
So if you don't see yours, it will be posted soon :)

Happy drawing!!!!
XOXO

 I teach art at my sister's dance studio....True Impact Performing Arts. At the dance recital for for last school year we put on a mini art show for the parents. It was a big success! Next year's art show will be even better though. The first year you kinda get a feel for how you want things to go and then each year you can make improvements.

 Students' ages range from kindergarten to 5th grade.


I hope you enjoyed the artwork!!!!

XOXO
