Junior Art Intensive

Cohort 1

Students in Cohort 1 began their JAI journey in a one week drawing and painting intensive, students then moved on to a second week which focussed on stop motion animation principles and soft sculpture. Students in Cohort 1 worked together to expand their technical skills and explore ways to communicate their ideas through drawing and painting. Some highlights this year included plein-air constructivist paintings done out on the school plaza, and a life-size ‘exquisite corpse’ drawing game.
