SUMMARY:Getting Started with Watercolor Pencil
DESCRIPTION:Explore the beauty of drawing and painting with watercolor pencils in this in-person course for beginners. Learn everything you need to get started – types of paper\, pencils\, how to put the color down\, how to paint with a pencil. Each session will be a review and work on the painting. The class will work on 3-4 paintings during the course. \nSTUDENTS NEED TO PURCHASE THEIR OWN SUPPLIES:  \n\nArtist Grade Watercolor Pencils (at least 24 colors\, 36 colors is preferred)\nMix Media Paper\n#1 Round Watercolor Brush\n1/8″ Angle Shader Watercolor Brush\nSelection of Small Watercolor Brushes\n\n \nPhilip Schorn – P Schorn Studio – Botanical Color Pencil Artist My botanical renderings are not drawings of plant specimens as seen in scientific books; rather\, they are renderings of plants as seen through the eye of an artist. I can look at the ground; I can see the shapes\, light\, and shadows. I focus on a small portion of the subject and what makes it interesting\, whether that be the individual leaf\, flower\, or snapshot of the ground\, to bring the details to life.\nI have been working with colored pencil for several years and teaching the art for the last three years. I’m currently teaching online from my home since March. I currently teach online color pencil classes for other art studios/galleries\, private classes and Facebook demos. I have two books published of my art/techniques on. I have done a number of outdoor shows\, group and individual exhibitions.\nMy process of making a rendering with the detail that I want to have requires a significant amount of time. Sometimes I use other media\, such as ink\, watercolors or pastels.\nI am a member of the Color Pencil Society of America\, Grayslake Arts Alliance and the Lake County Art League. My studio is located in Grayslake. \nEmail: phil@nullpschornstudio.com   FB: pschornstudio/

SUMMARY:After School Art Club With Lezlie
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a budding artist in the family? Then sign them up for this after-school class where they will create with an art history story! Students start out with free draw time\, discuss an “artist of the day”\, work on a project inspired by that artist\, and finish up with clean up\, an art discussion and a draw-a-long. Grades 1 – 4 \nOur art classes provide your child with a structured environment to explore their creativity and experiment with different artistic techniques. It also offers them a way to express themselves\, their thoughts\, and emotions in a visual and tangible form. Students will be introduced to various artistic styles\, techniques\, and cultural influences from around the world that can help them develop an appreciation for diversity and different perspectives.
