Kids Constructive Drawing Camp

$550

with Kelsey Doherty

SUPPLIES PROVIDED

Children will learn to accurately draw simple and complex geometric shapes, applying proper perspective, values, and composition. Through instructor demonstrations, structured exercises, diagrams, and group classwork, students will gain a strong understanding of essential drawing principles, reinforced by direct observation and life drawing.

Too often, geometric shapes are dismissed as “the basics” and are overlooked. However, mastering these forms is fundamental to an artist’s ability to construct and visualize space. The methods taught in this course mirror those practiced daily by students in our adult program, ensuring a rigorous and high-impact learning experience at a younger age level.

This summer, give your child an exceptional foundation in classical drawing techniques and skills that will be the building blocks for artistic success.

Dates: July 7 - 11, 2025

Time: 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Tuition: $550
