Course Description: 
Art Exploration is a hands on course with the goal to bring glory to God by exploring a variety of different art mediums and styles.  We will look at a variety of artists, analyzing and trying their unique styles. The class will also experiment with sculpture and collage with a variety of materials. We will explore paint, pen and ink, fabrics, clay, printing, and more. We will make one, two, and three dimensional pieces in a fun, encouraging, and relaxing atmosphere. It is my goal as a believer in Christ and as an artist to reinforce the purpose of art as uplifting and always reflecting the Master Creator.
