Baby Picasso
This class is unique in that it is an unstructured vehicle for young artists to express their emotions and inner self without being led, step-by-step by an instructor. Children learn to explore color, dimension and shape expression without the structure inherent in most art classes. This “uninhibited” method is best with young children because it encourages free expression instead of having to “color in the lines”
no make ups are available for this class
Discovery
Great introductory class for young children, ages 4 and 5. This class uses craft application to introduce art concepts. Students experience the thrill of creativity & success in a “free” environment. Crafts are used as a vehicle for discovery of art basics (color theory, spatial awareness, mass vs. density, etc.) and reinforcement of life skills (hand/eye coordination, proper use & maintenance of tools, etc.)

Acrylic 1
The perfect next step for our Foundation graduates. Students learn Zelda’s famous “Logic Based Layers” system of painting, working from a special selection of pictures. This is an ongoing, realistic style painting class. Great for young beginners because of the smaller class size. Students learn art theory, concepts and techniques in this “hands on” problem solving class with no lecturing. Photographs are used for visual reference, but there is no tracing. Students work independently, at their own pace.
