The Arts at TGS

Art Survey and Beginning Drawing courses are currently being offered to students at TGS.

The Art Survey course introduces students to a variety of art making techniques and concepts, including drawing, color theory (students created their own color wheel and learned about mixing colors), abstract expression (students learned about the movement through presentations and research, created an abstract painting), and history of art (researching an artist and creating a mini-art book). 

Upcoming projects include sculpture and ceramics--We need newspaper donations!!

The Beginning Drawing course focuses on developing drawing skills including shading, porportion, drawing from observation, cubist movement (completed a cubist collage, learned about how Picaso invented the modern notion of collage), and history of art (researching a cubist artist and creating a mini-art book). 

All projects are designed to be open to students at all ranges of artistic abilities, from beginning artists to advanced! For questions about the TGS Art program, please contact Randi Channel at rchannel@thegrahamschool.org.
