About This Activity
There are many ways to tell a story—through words, through theater and dance, or through visual art. In this class, students will discover ways in which artists throughout time have conveyed stories by depicting them in their sculptures, drawings, and paintings. Students will examine and discuss the works of Faith Ringgold, Clementine Hunter, Norman Rockwell, Grant Wood, Frederick Remington, and others. After gaining inspiration from a narrative artist, students will “tell” their own stories using a variety of mediums such as air-dry clay, watercolors, tempera paint, charcoal, and oil pastels. Join us for this extraordinary art experience!
