Camp: Art of Illustration: All About Sci-Fi [Ages 5-8 & 9-14]

Campers who enjoy science fiction can stretch their imagination to work in a variety of media to create their own interpretations of weird and wonderful characters and creatures while improving their drawing skills. Emphasis is placed on dry media and fast-drying media, such as ink and watercolor.  

About the Teaching Artist:

She has been teaching multi-media classes to children and adults of all ages and levels since 2001 through personal lessons, visiting artist grants, and in places such as Creative Hands in Madison, Let’s Create in Boonton, Messy Artist in South Orange and the Summit Art Center. In her studio, the medium of choice is pantyhose. She combines the translucent and sensual nature of pantyhose and the rigidity of wire to create sculptures of complex depth and personality. These sculptures have been featured around the tri-state area.
