Watching the array of talent at Flying Machine Art Academy this month has been sensational. Starting at age 3 and moving all the way up to age 13, our students are producing some incredible works of art with careful skill, observation and top notch creativity.
Portrait painting, and landscape painting have been the focus this summer with an emphasis on drawing technique and observation; shape and placement of the eyes, ears, nose and so on in relation to each another with portraits. Depth perspective and establishing a sense of space between objects were established in the landscape paintings. The emphasis was LESS on realism and perfection, MORE on capturing a genuine likeness and personality.
Students mix all their own colors here at Flying Machine Art Academy, tints and shades to create volume, depth and variation. That's a lot of mixing! Our students are working hard, and it shows!
