The spring round of art classes has begun! We're off to a great start in the
NEW By Land and Sea Class (projects inspired by landscape, seascape, and cityscape artists). I have to say that I thought all of my 11 students did an amazing job on their first project (much better than my example).

We learned about horizon lines, highlights, layering, foreground, middle ground, and background space in a multi-media project (watercolor underpainting with chalk pastel). Our artist in the spotlight was Henri Rousseau.

I'm particularly delighted by the differences in results, even though this was a guided project. All I can say is I can't wait to see what the next 6 weeks will bring! Well done, kids - I wish I could show everyone's work right now, but I'll save some for later!
