hbj school of fine art about




		At the HBJ School Fine Art we believe that every child is a masterpiece- -a work of art created uniquely by God. Our goal is to teach children how to identify, articulate, and express the beauty they see in this world, and we strive to give them the skills to do it. We love to see children learn how to harness their creativity, unleash their
		imaginations, and become inspired.	Click here for more about Ms. Heather, Art Insructor
		We teach in many mediums, and all styles: landscape, still life, portraiture, and abstract. We expect our students to learn about art at their own pace and have a wonderful time! Our focus is on the process, not the product. All class activities are age appropriate, and because they average 6 students, your child will get lots of individual attention.
		Math and science skills are part of our curriculum,
		because they are naturally a part of fine art (see our gallery!). Art history is incorporated into each lesson. Class begins with a presentation of historically significant artists and their artwork, followed by a class discussion.
		Every class focuses on a new artistic concept or technique (we call it “Quick Study”), but the class session is progressive, building on what your child learns in previous lessons. Parents receive a lesson review sheet from each class which includes resources for you to use at home. We also give “Home Art” (NOT homework!) in case your budding artist wants to practice new techniques between classes.
