(ages 5 through 12 years)
How the program works:
Student’s choose their own picture and sit at individual benches.
The pictures teach students how to create an advanced drawing using
basic shapes. Once the drawing is complete, they learn various coloring
techniques to make their pictures more realistic.
Progression through the program includes learning still life
drawing, watercolor, and oil painting.
Skills Learned:
Otto’s developing artists learn how to draw, problem solve, and
make artistic decisions so they can work independently to progress forward
in the program. The end result is a child who possesses the skills of
a fine artist as well as a child with confidence, self respect, and
high self esteem.
