Teaching overview

Classes are conducted in a supportive environment and our small class sizes insure that each child will have plenty of individual instruction time. Children are encouraged to finish each work that they have begun - this develops the habit of self-discipline and instills a sense of accomplishment with each project. The course of instruction typically covers the following elements:
 Golden Light student pastel painting
  • Size, form and proprtion - from larger shapes to smaller shapes / detail
  • Line and shape - there will be fun exercises to practice lines / shapes to develop technique
  • Color - children progress from the use of primary colors to complementary colors and are introduced to color theory (i.e. - children will make a color wheel)
  • the influence of light, shade, shadow, perspective and distance
  • Technique - children are exposed, hands-on, to the different methods and styles that have been used successfully by fine and commercial artists.

* If your child has a special interest with regard to subject matter - then please let us know.
