Learning art techniques for making more realistic art as well as exploring a wide variety of materials and styles are a part of this class.

Level 4

This class is for all levels and experience of artists in grades 8-10. Students will continue to refine their drawing, painting and 3D skills in art. More independent ideas and work are expected at this level. Most projects will have flexibility of choosing subjects and materials so they can more individually express themselves.

Kids Canvas Class

This class is for grades 2-4. They will work on teacher chosen projects in acrylic paint on canvases. A variety of subjects will be explored. There will be lots of emphasis on learning acrylic techniques and enjoying the process of painting instead using their own ideas. Most projects will have a tracer available for part of the drawing for those that don’t want to draw it themselves.

Teen Canvas Class

This class is for grades 5-8. They will work on teacher chosen projects in acrylic on canvas. A variety of subjects will be explored. There will be lots of emphasis on learning acrylic techniques and enjoying the process of painting instead using their own ideas. Some projects will have a tracer available for part of the drawing for those that want less emphasis on drawing and more on painting.

Make up classes

In case of inclement weather, classes are cancelled. I will send out an email if class is cancelled. I will also post on my FB page “Maureen Marks Art”. A make-up class will be scheduled.

Unfortunately I do not offer make ups, refunds, credits or transfers if a student needs to miss a class. If for any reason your child misses a class and we are still working on it when they return I will help them to catch up as much as possible. If a project was completed during their absence it will be sent home unfinished. If a new project was started during absence they will make a smaller or simpler version of the project as per teacher discretion.

Summer Camps

There are no Summer Camps in 2024 so that the studio can be repainted and some updates made.

2, 3 and 4 Day Summer Camps are offered in June, July and August. Visit the calendar tab www.MaureenMarksArt.com/calendar and scroll over to the summer months to see Camp offerings.
