Working with visual themes shown in the exhibit, “Degas: The Private Impressionist,” students will explore Impressionistic concepts of time and the human body, producing a series of quick gesture and blind contour drawings as well as a whimsical subtractive self-portrait with charcoal. As Degas captured the essence of the human body, horses and ballet dancers, we will capture our own fleeting nature at this moment in time.
Following the workshop, teens and families will be invited for complimentary admission to the exhibit “Degas: The Private Impressionist”.
