SUMMARY:Teen Art With Joalida Smit
DESCRIPTION:Paint and draw with Joalida in her art studio at the Gorton Center! In this on-going class Joalida works with teens exploring different mediums\, techniques and subject matter to discover their art style. These classes are unstructured\, meeting your teen where they are in their art development and guiding them through individual attention to become more confident in their art making. All materials are provided. Ages 11 – 17 \n*Please note this is an art development class\, not an after school club. Prior art experience and a keen interest in art required.  Your teen will be asked to leave if they cannot adhere to the rules of the art room. \nJoalida Smit is a Clinical Psychologist and Neuropsychologist who lived and worked in London (UK) and Cape Town (SA) for the past 20 years. She pivoted to full time artist during COVID and now runs an art studio at The Gorton Center working on large scale canvases. Currently she is exploring innovative ways to incorporate art in the psychology work of personal transformation.
