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.

Jerry Chan

Hi everyone! My name is Jerry, I am a visual artist. I was born in Hong Kong and moved to New York in 2018, now based in New Jersey. I’m so excited to see you on Artuta to have fun together!
