BIG AND LITTLE: PLAYING WITH SCALE IN ART
Artists love to play with the scale of objects in their work! Join us for a week of making artistic miniatures, large-scale paintings, and sculptures. By looking at artists like Claes Oldenberg, Coosje van Bruggen, and Alexander Calder to guide the way, campers will learn techniques in visual perspective and how to scale their concepts into miniature and grand proportions.
Campers now receive a Des Moines Art Center summer camp T-shirt as part of their tuition.
