|  Costa
Rica is known to many artists to be one of the most inspiring
locations on earth. Use the medium of your choice and learn a
variety of techniques for capturing your Costa Rica experience
on canvas. Field trips are taken several times each week to new
locations for on-site instruction. Art sessions are open to all
ages and skill levels.
Classes for beginners (or
more experienced artists wanting to brush up on their skills)
focus on basic drawing skills such as contour, shape, value, perspective,
depth, and texture. The goal of the program is to help students
use the language of drawing to describe the world around them.
Intermediate and advanced students can focus on other areas such
as landscapes, portraits, abstraction or another area of personal
interest after a quick refresher of the basic techniques. Lodging
is included for all Art Program participants. Art programs are
available in one, two, and four week durations year-round and
can also be combined with Surfing or Spanish classes.
