Discover the basics of creating art in this drawing and painting course for kids. Over 12 weeks, kids will explore drawing and painting through a wide range of mediums, including pencil, colored pencil, pastels, watercolor, acrylic, and oil. Each project is introduced with age and skill level in mind, ensuring every child feels supported as they create artwork that reflects their unique interests—from portraits, animals, landscapes, anime, fantasy scenes, abstract designs, or entirely original ideas.
Using a Socratic approach, our friendly instructor will ask questions and encourage exploration, helping kids develop their own artistic voice without pressure. Our intimate class size allows for meaningful one-on-one guidance and customized lessons. Kids will learn essential skills such as shading, proportions, color mixing, and composition, gradually moving into deeper concepts like depth, storytelling, and completing polished pieces.
By the end of the course, each young artist will create at least one finished drawing and one completed painting. This class is perfect for kids who love to explore, need an encouraging space to express themselves, or are looking for creative activities in Seattle.
