This is available periodically and during times when physical classes have to be suspended. These classes are as beneficial as physical classes because students acquire and sharpen skills very much the same as in a face-to-face setting. Like our studio classes, our online classes provide clear step-by-step drawing, colour mixing and painting demonstration. We review students' artworks frequently during the class to ensure drawing proportion, colour shades and painting techniques are met. As online art classes are remote and highly visual, it builds up concentration and independence in a child. We welcome children / teenagers looking for ad hoc classes or staying far from us to join this class. Heightened alert Jul/Aug 2021: week 1, week 2, week 3 Suitable for teenagers and children age 7 years and above. |
