Art Class: Creative Classics by Palette Bleu

Who doesn’t love a classic like an ice cream sundae with a red cherry or a pair of high top sneakers? There is something about a classic “anything” that draws us in. In this series, students will explore some classic artists such as Picasso and Monet. It is not about copying style, but gathering inspiration from their work, so artists create their own gallery of art. Creativity is the spark that makes us shine in whatever we create. It is not a step by step art series but one that invites an artist to truly engage in process, explore, inspire and be their own classic.
