INSTRUCTOR: MARY SCUKA
Class Experience
Summer is here and there are tons of fun outdoor activities like climbing trees or going on hikes. But look out----you may encounter a superhero with special outdoor powers! Superheroes with outdoor powers and powers using the elements are at their strongest in the warm weather season. Whether they use wind, fire, or water, or whether they talk to animals or grow vines to attack enemies, we will learn about drawing them!
At this unique camp, we combine learning, creativity, imagination, and fun! We will learn about special outdoor superheroes, their backgrounds, powers, and enemies. Best of all, we will learn to draw and paint them!
We teach a variety of drawing fundamentals and techniques with a focus on creating superhero characters including anime and other kinds of comic styles. Campers are introduced to different drawing and painting techniques while also focusing on character design. Campers ave plenty of freedom to adapt their own creativity and style to develop unique art. In addition to drawing principles, campers explore various color mediums including watercolor, brush pens, and tempera paint.
For extra fun, we will have superhero games throughout the week to challenge campers and offer even more fun! If you want your child to improve their art skills, imagination and creative confidence, give them the gift of this unique camp! Hope to see you there!
