Camp Description

Instructor Nash Richardson will guide students in this introductory camp focused painting and drawing. Students will begin by focusing on learning how to observe the natural world and real- life forms, and later translate those observations into shape and line. Students will utilize their newfound skills to complete a drawing project that is both observational and inventive. Students will be introduced to various painting styles and apply their favorite chosen style(s) into an abstraction exercise. On Friday afternoon, campers will display their works in a makeshift gallery setting and invite friends and family members to view their creations.

This camp is open to all levels from rising 7–12 grades.
