Support our students with a donation to the AMOA Summer Art Camp Scholarship campaign. Our goal is to provide a minimum of six scholarships for AMOA Summer Art Camp (One scholarship per week). Contributions will directly benefit students unable to attend camp due to financial hardship.
Students will learn about the different styles and types of art in China and Japan from paper lanterns and fans to Sumi-e paintings and Ming style vases.
Students will learn about the core drawing fundamentals from contour & blind contour lines and linear perspective to rendering and use of color. Benefits in this short course will include increasing the student’s skills in drawing from direct observation, gaining exposure and experience in a variety of media beyond the pencil, and building or increasing artworks that will be useful for developing portfolio reviews when applying to college level art programs.
Students will learn about the work of local artist Ricardo Flores and explore what inspires them as young artists. Students will create their own unique works as well as a community mural.
Students will learn about famous artists, what they did, and how they did it. They will be experimenting with different mediums and tools while learning about the artists that used them.
Students will explore a variety of different fantasy inspired art from Dali collages and Monster Inc. paper mache monsters to mythological Chimera drawings and Jim Henson inspired puppets.
We will be reading some of our favorite stories and making art inspired by them!
