Thursday: Draw, Paint & Sculpt! [Ages 6-10]

You will build your understanding of painting and sculpture with traditional and new 2D and 3D mediums while also developing a personal artistic style. Apply color theory and the principles of art and design to create original paintings and sculpture. But, most importantly, you will infuse every piece with fun and flair. Great for children who love building and being hands-on! New projects and subjects will be explored, so both new and continuing students are welcome. *This class is a part of our Certificate in Fine Arts Program and will give each student one point towards their CiFA certification.

$50 Materials fee due on the first day of class

About the Teaching Artist
Katie Truk received her BFA from Alfred University. She has been teaching multi-media classes to children and adults of all ages and levels since 2001 through personal lessons, visiting artist grants and in places such as Creative Hands in Madison, Let’s Create in Boonton, Messy Artist in South Orange, Visual Art Center in Summit, and the West Windsor Art Center in West Windsor. In her studio the medium of choice is pantyhose. She combines the translucent and sensual nature of pantyhose and the rigidity of wire to create sculptures of complex depth and personality. These sculptures have been featured around the tri-state area.
