Art in the Afternoon - Grade 2
The Art in the Afternoon Grade 2 program provides an age-appropriate balanced approach to teaching art – emphasizing both the fundamentals of art and creative expression. Taught to the right side of the brain, it emphasizes the art elements and principles, drawing technique, self-expression, and media diversity.
In Grade 2 we begin to teach the technique of right brain (contour) drawing, which will be the focus of all drawing lessons going forward. Students study and learn the styles of artists Henri Matisse and Amedeo Modigliani and then create original artworks in their styles.
The Art in the Afternoon Grade 2 provides 12 lessons and 2.9 hours of video instruction.
