Our art classes seek to spark creativity. We encourage students to make messes, try new things and become confident in their artistic endeavors. Through fun and engaging lessons, students work in a variety of mediums, including, pencil, ink, paint, oil pastels, clay, and textiles. We explore different art periods, artists and cultures. Students build on prior learning, and deepen their knowledge and understanding of art, all while discovering their own artistic and creative voice. Students will produce a portfolio of work that includes original designs, based on the lessons that we study.​​​​
WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING
“Art with Ms. James is without a doubt the highlight of my daughter’s week. Each class she explores new mediums, learns a noteworthy artist, and deepens her understanding of the basics-lines, color, composition, and more. No worksheets or coloring pages here…Ms. James works with her students on a single piece for several weeks, ensuring their work is something to be framed and treasured for years to come.”
