12- 15 year old
1-hour classes with an Ode 2 Art Academy drawing instructor are held every other week, allowing time for students to complete age-appropriate assignments in between. Progressive lessons drawing with the instructor are designed to improve drawing accuracy and create realistic drawings. Students are encouraged to complete the entire 3-year curriculum but may cancel at any time. First year students will learn tonal values, realistic shading, perspective, scale, proportion, line types and how to draw a variety of textures, landscapes, everyday objects, animals, and still life. Second year students progress to learn anatomy (no nudes), portraiture, and color study with paint. Third year students who have a firm understanding of traditional art then move on to the in-demand digital platform.
