Randolph Art League and the Universal City Library Team Up with a 2012 Summer Youth Art Program
Teaching a Pastel Class,
Colorful Summer Fun!
~~by Cindy Morawski
Last Monday on June 18th, I met with a group of students aged 6 through 10 at the Universal City Library. The Randolph Art League has teamed up with the Universal City Library to teach art classes to the local youth this summer. Artists from the league are instructing children in everything from painting to jewelry making. From 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. last week, my class learned about the history of pastel painting and drawing. I also had fun with two lessons. The first included creating a landscape and the second lesson featured drawing birds and animals. Choosing a palette for a sunrise or sunset was part of the first lesson. My students selected their materials and then started. Vera Smith and Brigitte Tuttle, RAL artists, also assisted me in the class. I loved my students' creativity and enthusiasm. They focused on the steps and ended up with some great artwork to take home. Many more classes will continue through the summer. What a wonderful way to spend some free time! I'm glad that I was a part of it. If you'd like to learn more about this educational program, please call or go to the following website.

If you'd also like to join the Randolph Art League, our first fall meeting will take place at the Universal City Library, 100 Northview Drive, Universal City, TX, on September 5, 2012, at 7:30 p.m. Meetings will continue throughout the year on the first Wednesday of the month.
