Drawing is at the heart of everything in art. It helps you to look closely at the world, which gives you the superpowers you need to see like an artist. Artists appreciate the shapes, colours, lights and darks, lines, patterns and textures that make up an object. They always care so much about what the object is, or what it does. Are you ready to train your eyes like an artist?
Once you’ve mastered drawing, you may be ready to try out painting. Paints allow you to express yourself in ways pencil drawings don’t. So, when you’re ready, join us as we learn how to mix colours, apply them to the page or canvas and then on to more advanced techniques that will give you the freedom to paint whatever you want.
Whether you like to draw, paint, sculpt, or print, photography can be a really helpful tool or an exciting addition. Just like drawing, taking pictures gets y0u looking closely at the world. Although not essential, good photographs/reference images often make it easier to achieve better drawings, paintings, etc. In this section you’ll learn how to use your camera, what to look for when you’re out taking pictures, and how to enhance or manipulate them digitally afterwards.
