Here is the Lesson Schedule For Teenagers & Adults
We recommend choosing one main medium to learn and a sub-medium, for example, assigning 16-18 sessions to learn a main medium such as Watercolour painting, and the rest of the sessions to learn Acrylic painting or Drawing and sketching as a sub-medium. Students may also feel free to split their learning on three mediums equally for an exploration and gain a foundation level in all three mediums. It would take 8 sessions to 12 sessions to attain a foundational level of proficiency and 18-24 sessions to attain an intermediate of proficiency
For the period of 26 weeks of the course, the student can achieve intermediate level of one preferred medium. For example, a student practice both Pencil Sketching and Acrylic Painting in 24 lesson course. He/she will achieve intermediate competency in Acrylic Painting, while having strong basics in Pencil Sketching.
The topic of the course covers landscape, still life object, portrait, and can be tailored according to the student’s interest and requirements.
