Process Art is all about creating art with interesting and unique methods. Students will learn fun techniques using a wide variety of materials. We practice curiosity, bravery and finding joy in the messiness. Scientific principles will come into play for many of the projects, as well as elements of design and color theory. While our main focus is always exploring the process, students also create a beautiful and distinctive piece of artwork each week.
