JOURNEY INTO THE WINDSWEPT WORLD OF WINSLOW HOMER AND DISCOVER THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF ONE OF AMERICA'S MOST BELOVED PAINTERS DURING THE RECONSTRUCTION ERA. FROM DRAMATIC SEASCAPES TO QUIET MOMENTS OF EVERYDAY LIFE, EXPLORE BEYOND THE SURFACE OF THE CANVAS THROUGH STORIES, DISCUSSION, AND ART JOURNALING.
OVER A SIX-WEEK INTERDISCIPLINARY SERIES, STUDENTS WILL:
LEARN ABOUT THE LIFE AND TIMES OF WINSLOW HOMER IN 19TH-CENTURY AMERICA
EXPLORE THE HISTORY OF THE CIVIL WAR, RECONSTRUCTION, WESTWARD EXPANSION, AND THE RAPIDLY CHANGING WORLD HOMER OBSERVED
DISCOVER HOW HOMER EVOLVED FROM A MAGAZINE ILLUSTRATOR TO ONE OF AMERICA'S GREATEST PAINTERS
STUDY HIS ICONIC SEASCAPES, WATERCOLORS, AND SCENES OF CHILDHOOD THROUGH GUIDED PICTURE STUDY
EXPLORE ART CONCEPTS SUCH AS COMPOSITION, LIGHT, COLOR, ATMOSPHERE, AND THE EXPRESSIVE POWER OF WATERCOLOR
CREATE AN ARTIST'S JOURNAL, COLLECTING OBSERVATIONS, SKETCHES, AND TECHNIQUES INSPIRED BY HOMER'S WORK WHILE DEVELOPING THE HABIT OF LOOKING MORE CLOSELY AT THE WORLD AROUND THEM
PERFECT FOR CURIOUS LEARNERS IN GRADES 3–8, THIS CLASS INVITES STUDENTS TO CULTIVATE THE SKILLS OF AN ARTIST—CURIOSITY, PATIENCE, OBSERVATION, AND WONDER. THE COST OF THE COURSE INCLUDES AN UGLYBOOKS SKETCHBOOK, AND ALL MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES ARE PROVIDED BY THE ATELIER.
THIS ART ADVENTURE INSPIRED BY WINSLOW HOMER OFFERS TWO PARALLEL PATHWAYS—WINSLOW WEDNESDAYS OR HOMER HARBOR MONDAYS—EACH DESIGNED AS A COMPLETE CREATIVE JOURNEY THROUGH HISTORY, WATERCOLOR EXPLORATION, AND ART JOURNALING. INCLUDED IN BOTH PATHS ARE TWO STUDIO DEEP DIVE FRIDAYS, WHERE STUDENTS SLOW DOWN AND FOCUS ON TECHNIQUE, EXPERIMENTING MORE DEEPLY WITH WATERCOLOR AND DRAWING PRACTICES IN A HANDS-ON STUDIO SETTING. ALL STUDENTS AND FAMILIES COME TOGETHER AT THE END OF OUR ADVENTURE FOR A CELEBRATORY BEACH PAINTING SESSION TO CLOSE THE EXPERIENCE.
*MAKE UP CLASSES ARE NOT OFFERED, SO IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT STUDENTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR EVERY SESSION.
TIME: 12PM-2:30PM IN COSTA MESA
