Improve your drawing and painting skills with this in-depth class that focuses on using life as inspiration for art. Participants will create their own worlds, characters, and stories with the skills developed during this camp. Warning: Not for the faint of heart! We will be working hard and traveling around campus and downtown Oxford to make works of art based on the world around us and to view art in the many galleries in the community. We will wrap up our intense week of creation with an art show of our own work.
