The urge to make art that is imaginative and exciting is what this 'Fantasy Art & Creativity Course' is all about. Exploring the realm of the mind with fantasy images is creativity at its very best and these art lessons will allow you to explore the materials, techniques, and processes of fantasy artists.
Fantasy pictures are not just ways to learn how to draw cartoon characters or how to draw a mermaid or how to draw a dragon. Of course, that is part of it! But mostly fantasy images are about rendering the world in a way that is relatable but “out of this world” at the same time.
The Fantasy Art & Creativity Course (Ages 11-17) is carried out in small groups of not more than 12 students. Art Academy is fully air-conditioned and is equipped with televisions, projectors and sound system.
