Happy New Year from Soft Altitude Arts!
We're getting ready to soar to new heights over here at Soft Altitude Arts, cosmic heights!
Artists will use a variety of mediums and techniques to create really cool space-themed art pieces.
During our 6 classes together, our artists will explore their creativity and many different artistic techniques while learning how to draw, paint and sculpt. They will grow their artistic self-confidence, and have lots of fun building their creations in our friendly and easy-going classes.
Our artists will create their artworks using the following artistic mediums:
All courses are led by Oana Stefanescu, a certified teacher with over 10 years experience teaching for the OCDSB, who is also a visual artist, and a published author.
The classes will take place in a real visual arts studio at the Nepean Creative Arts Centre in Bells Corners. (35 Stafford Rd.)
Each class is one-and-a-half hours in length.
Spaces are limited, as there is a maximum of 14 students per course.
Previous art experience is not required.
Throughout the 6 week course, our artists will create between 4-6 different artworks. Students will receive direct instruction and personalized guidance throughout every class to learn, to build new skills, to improve their techniques, and most importantly to to grow their self-confidence.
At the end of BOTH Cosmic Art 1 and Cosmic Art 2 courses, we will celebrate our artists' creative expression with a very special Cosmic Art Expo. At the Art Expo all of their beautiful artwork will be showcased in a gallery-like setting, to be admired and celebrated with family and friends.
Following the student exhibit, all artwork may be brought home. The Art Expo is included in the course fee.
*Minimum number of participants to run this course: 7
