SUMMARY:Visual Storytelling: Emotion\, Figure\, and Space
DESCRIPTION:This six-week painting course explores how narrative can be built through the relationship between figure\, environment\, and color. \nWorking in acrylic or oil\, students will develop one narrative painting from concept to completion\, beginning with brainstorming personal or imagined stories and translating them into visual form through thumbnail sketches and compositional planning. \nAs the course progresses\, students will focus on blocking in figures and spaces\, using gesture and body language to clarify meaning\, and exploring how color\, limited palettes\, and atmosphere can communicate emotion. \nThe final weeks emphasize refinement\, symbolism\, and visual cohesion\, culminating in a group critique centered on storytelling\, emotional readability\, and narrative impact. \nAll supplies will be provided via the supply fee. \nAges 13-18 \nTuesdays 6-8 pm \nJune 9 – July 14 \nRegistration Fee: $228
