Studio Art Camp 2 this past week at SHC

Another Great week!


Day One:
Kicking it off in Japantown.

 
Hard core students get sad when the stationary store hasn't opened yet. 

Wednesday:
Working on the self portrait.


Technique for transferring image.

Thursday:
On our way to the art store and The Cartoon Art Museum.


 

Drawing at The Cartoon Art Museum.




Pencil drawing for single cell of a TMNT cartoon.

TMNT's favorite show. A spoof on Filmation's Star Trek









A young girls fan art from the early 20th Century.

"What did you think about The Cartoon Art Museum?"

Lunch at Yerba Buena Gardens.

City kids need their specialty drinks.

 
I could cry when I see this: Sketchbooks replacing smart phones!

Friday:
Conceptual Self Portrait. The students when right at it with great results.






Results of a very full week!

Very cool boombox (now considered retro)

Love this self portrait!
Fantastic!

The simple line of the self portrait really captures the expression.

The fantastic ideas just kept coming. Great execution.


This close up really shows a nicely executed under painting.

Great results after learning  how to control the material.

Amazing how this translates as a self portrait.

A little camera shy.

Very tight technique.


Fantastic SLR camera complete with LCD screen.


Two sisters sitting right next to each other with these big smiles and creating this beautiful work. How could this not make your day?

A full range of work. Different mediums, different concepts and different stylistic approaches- love it!

Great! A strong range of approaches. Loved this conceptual piece.


Nice drawing with a strong sense of composition for the whole spread!


Two very different self portraits. Love it!

Fantastic work. I completely imagine these pieces displayed at home!

I can't help but see the tie in with the conceptual piece and the watercolor. I totally would display them together!

Big range of work with fantastic technique.

Great watercolor from the first day!

The energy went into the hand and just kept making work. Great job!


Total focus all the time. Knocked out in one day- fantastic!

I really enjoyed this group. A special thanks to Jen, Rachel and the amazing Sara Bautista. Sara pushed the joy of the last two weeks over the top!

I hope everyone enjoys the remainder of their summer. Please come by the SHC art room and visit me if you get a chance next year.

Thanks again,
Mr. McHugh
