Niagara Wheatfield Central School District

In this six-week class students will gain a direction and basic understanding of the acrylic paint medium as well as the elementary principles of color, composition, perspective, contrast, focal point, and texture.  Using only primary colors and white (four total colors), students will learn to mix their own colors with the help of a color wheel.  In addition, students will learn how to identify the core components in a picture, how to break their painting into sections, and ultimately complete their own masterpiece by the end of the course.
