SUMMARY:Portfolio Development - Concept & Personal Voice
DESCRIPTION:Portfolio Development is for students who are serious about making art and those who plan to build visual portfolios for private school admission or college level admission. Serious students of any age can build a portfolio\, as it is a body of work that shows an understanding of drawing\, painting\, composition\, and concept. Students will be encouraged to explore new techniques\, strengthen their understanding of mediums\, and develop conceptual work that is meaningful to them. \nThis program is open to ALL STUDENTS  who love to create and those who seek more guidance to grow artistically\, regardless of portfolio requirements. \n(ages 13 and up) \nInstructor: Courtney Wilson \nCo-instructor: Maritza Lezama \n  \n*Please inform us in advance of any food allergies. \n  \nDue to new health and safety concerns\, we ask that students come to class with a mask. We will provide hand sanitizer and wipe down working areas with disinfectant before and after class. Shields and limited class sizes will also be implemented during this time. We ask that if your child or a household family member does not feel well to be open and communicate with us about your child missing class as a precautionary measure. Restaurant rules apply for snacks and drinks… students will be allowed to eat and drink at their work space but must wear masks when traveling through the studio. \n

SUMMARY:Watercolor: Controlled Chaos
DESCRIPTION:Watercolor has a reputation of being hard to control\, with precision and detail difficult to attain. In this course\, Lowell-based illustrator and painter Ashley Eisenman will help students to “learn to let go” and embrace watercolor painting as expressive\, versatile\, and fun. Through a varied set of classes\, students will gain skills in the fundamentals of watercolor painting and composition\, sketching\, color mixing and choice\, and how to create representational pieces from abstract beginnings. Students will be encouraged to experiment with a variety of subjects including abstract expressions\, portraits of humans and animals\, and pop-art. \nInstructor: Ashley Eisenman \nCo-instructor: Emily Watso \nRequired materials: Wear a mask\, sketchbook\, favorite personal brushes or paints\, & clothes you don’t mind getting messy\,  snacks\, and something to drink. \n*Please inform us in advance of any food allergies. \nDue to new health and safety concerns\, we ask that students come to class with a mask. We will provide hand sanitizer and wipe down working areas with disinfectant before and after class. Shields and limited class sizes will also be implemented during this time.
