In the final week of Summer Camp 27 students celebrated the creative possibilities of color!

Campers learned about color theory and how famous artists throughout history have used color to create masterpieces. Students used what they learned on beautiful projects in drawing, painting and sculpture.

Week 4 artists with their instructors, Ms. Amanda (Painting), Ms. Cassie (Program Director), Mr. Luke (Sculpture) and Ms. Jenny (Drawing).

In drawing students learned about the artist, Alma Woodsey Thomas and created artwork inspired by her style using oil crayons on black paper.

In painting students created bright paintings of ice cream inspired by pop artists like Wayne Theibaud.

In sculpture students brought a drawing they created into the real world sculpting a 3D version of a monster inspired by an emotion.

On Friday morning, Fox 10 visited Summer Camp at the Shemer Art Center, spotlighting all the creativity and learning happening here in June and throughout the year.
