Have you ever wanted to paint or draw like a real artist? Or did you ever wonder how artists make their paintings and drawings look and feel so real? If so, then this is the class for you! We'll learn how to make birds look and feel light, soft, and feathery. We'll learn to make sea shells 3-D and make trees look like they are growing and reaching for the sky. We'll also learn to make skies with sunrises and sunsets and how to make sunlight seem warm and shiny. Join the fun of learning how to make your own "wow" works of art.
