This session's theme is value (light and dark) and how artists use value to create a mood in their artwork. We will learn to create value gradations of colors and create some suspenseful artwork full of dark values and shadows!
In this session we will:
-LEARN the definition of value and how to identify value in artwork, how it can effect the meaning or mood of a work of art and add to the three-dimensional illusion of two-dimensional art.
-PRACTICE shading, including cast shadows.
-LOOK and discuss an inspiring source(artwork, artist, illustrator, designer, etc.).
-CREATE two pieces of art using different mediums that show value in two different ways. One that shows shading to create illusion of 3D and another that uses value contrasts to create a mood.
-TALK about your art. What mood did you use value to create? Ask a question and make a positive comment about other students' art.
An Art Academy apron is required to attend this class. If this is your child's first Art Foundations class, please add an apron to your registration at checkout. They will receive their apron on their first day of class.
This is a four week class for ages 8+. Buttons will be awarded to each child at the end of the last class.
All art supplies for these classes are provided by the Art Factory. A sibling discount of 10% is automatically included.
About the Art Academy:
Here at the Art Factory we believe art-loving kids need more opportunities to develop their talents and be rewarded for their creative accomplishments. That is why we are rolling out a new learning program, Art Academy by the Art Factory!
The Art Academy is a comprehensive art education program for kids ages 4 & up. This program is different from other classes offered at the Art Factory. Each learning unit is based on an appropriate age group curriculum framework designed by our very own art education experts.
Much like scout programs, Art Academy students will learn specific concepts and skills while completing various tasks to earn buttons they can display on their class apron.
Each academy level will have their own curriculum plan that is designated using apron colors and buttons. Students will collect and display their awards throughout their time in the academy.
