Welcome to 2023: The Year of the Rabbit!

Welcome to those returning to Little Ashcan and those who are just starting their artistic journey with us! We hope you all had a happy and safe New Years! Little Ashcan is kicking off the new semester with wonderful activities that revolve around this period of time—from drawing the best memory of 2022 to sketching new ones for 2023!

Little Ashcan’s first project is inspired by the Chinese Zodiac. Each new year is represented by an animal, and this year is the year of the rabbit! For this project, students are learning about how to sketch, create an underpainting, and use acrylic paint. This past week students were familiarizing themselves with new materials, canvas, drawing, and composition. Stay tuned for next week!
