Monet in the Valley, painting class for Adults

"Edgar Degas in the Valley" painting class for Kids ages 6 to 12

Hinovations Art Gallery celebrates French Art, by offering painting workshops in the style of Edgar Degas.

Degas was a French Impressionist artist, famous for his pastel drawings and oil paintings. Degas also produced bronze sculptures, prints and drawings. He is especially identified with the subject of dance; more than half of his works depict dancers.

Degas was a superb draftsman, and particularly masterly in depicting movement, as can be seen in his rendition of dancers. In addition to ballet dancers, Degas painted racehorses and racing jockeys, as well as portraits. Students will learn about his life's work as they become familiar with his artwork. They will use acrylic paints on canvas as they render Ballerina Paintings inspired by Degas original works of art.
