Plein-Air Drawing & Painting Basics: Ages 8-10

Students learn the basics of observational and environmental sketching both indoors and outdoors—working with still-life and natural settings. They work in pencil, pen, ink, and brush to develop their drawing skills of natural elements outdoors. Then, they explore natural color, highlight, and shadow as they paint using acrylic and watercolor from observation. Plein-Air Drawing & Painting Basics concludes with campers bringing home the work they created.
