We develop the Whole Child We Do More Than Just Draw
In our studio, we practice the 8 Habits of Minds.
From " Studio Thinking" By: Lois Hetland
Develop Craft
Improving your art skills through practice. Learning to organize and care for your art materials, tools, and art making space.
Envision
Picture ideas in your head plan the next steps in your mind as you work. Ask yourself: what will my art be about? What materials will I use? How big will it be? How long will it take?
Express
Learning to create works that convey an idea, feeling, or personal meaning. Your expression changes with your choice of: Ideas, Media, and Techniques.
Understand
Art World
Learning about art history, see how contemporary artists make art, understand the roles of artists, galleries and museums.
Observe
Taking time to notice details in your environment through sight, touch, taste, sound and smell.
Reflect
Looking back on the work you have done, it may include sharing verbally and in writing.
Stretch and Explore
Trying things that might be difficult and discovering new ideas and ways of working.
Engage and Persist
Focus on your work and stick with it, even when it gets hard.
