2D to 3D: Drawing and Painting into Sculpture
2D to 3D: Drawing and Painting into Sculpture
For students in 3rd-6th grade
Mondays, 6pm-7pm, April 17 to June 12, 2023 (no class 5/29)
Taught by Samantha Palmeri
Looking at examples of contemporary sculptors and artists from art history (including Alexander Caldor and Frank Stella), students will learn the differences between two and three-dimensional art, and how to go from an idea to a drawing to a sculpture. The class is process oriented which means we will be learning through the act of making. Lessons include exercises in drawing, sculpture building, and color study/theory. Focus will be on movement and balance through the exploration of line, shape, and color. The final project will be made from a series of sketches that are then cut out of cardboard, assembled, and painted.
