Visual Arts Camp

Have fun with visual arts this summer! Watercolor and paint on canvas with Gouache, cyanotype, still-life drawing, printmaking, and mixed media collages are just some of the techniques we will use. Examples of our projects include: drawing and painting from nature, mixed media self-portraits, using cyanotypes to make miniature sketchbooks, linocut (relief) printmaking.
