Workshop Description

In Artuta’s first-ever in-person class, kids and their families are invited to join instructors Joan and Kosuke in Prospect Park (Brooklyn, NY) for still life drawing using a real, live monster as a model! In this one hour workshop, as our monster holds a variety of fun and not-too-scary poses, Artuta instructors will guide your child through their drawing, offering one-on-one tips and encouraging experimentation. We’ll bring paper and pens–and the monster– and, afterward, drawings will be photographed and uploaded to the Artuta Online Art Gallery so everyone can see!

Suggested Materials

Paper, colored pencils, pens any other drawing materials*
*We’ll provide paper and pens and you are welcome to bring your own as well.

Instructors

Kosuke Kawahara

Hello! I’m looking forward to meeting you here on Artuta. I am a Brooklyn based artist. I was born in Kyoto and raised in Shiga, Japan and moved to New York in 2011.

Joan Hacker

My name is Joan and I am a Sound Art instructor here at Artuta. My intuition tells me that art cannot be taught; but curiosity and zeal can be inspired in others through one’s own love for a subject.
