Join Joalida Smit in her art studio for a week of drawing and painting an aspirational portrait – an image that reflects both your current inspirations and hopes for your future. We will think about ourselves, who we are, what we love and what we hope to change. I will take your budding artist through the process of image-making from ideation to final art work, focusing on the fundamentals of the art process – drawing faces, color-mixing for skin tones and composition. This art camp is process orientated, meaning that I work with your teen’s unique style, helping them to establish their artistic voice within the safety of a vibrant art studio environment.

This camp is ideal for middle schoolers aged 10 – 15 with artistic ability who wants to develop their skills to the next level.
