Course Overview

With a Biblical creation worldview in mind, this art class takes what is seen daily in creation and uses that to define the seven foundational elements of art. As we answer the question "What is art?", your student will have the opportunity to work with many different art mediums, such as, colored pencils, paint, charcoal, and more! While learning how to take what is pictured in their imagination and put it on paper in a skillful way, they will grow a better understanding of their Creator and how they can glorify Him with a paintbrush in hand.

Julia Smith

Julia is an artist who discovered her love of all things paint, canvas, and brush in her junior year of high school. With what seemed like a late start to trying her hand at a new and quite involved skill set, she quickly found the words of Isaiah 30:21 to be a promise. For six years, Julia has been a perpetual student of her craft, co-hosted Fine Arts camps, and used her combined love of missions (both local and international) and art to share the gospel of Christ. With this experience has come the awareness that too often, the connection between the knowledge of the Creator and creating art has been marred and twisted. It is Julia’s passion to be used by God to share how every brush stroke, scratch of a pencil, and molding of clay is and always should be inspired by God’s Word. After all, wasn’t it His words that breathed creation, the most studied and admired masterpiece, into existence?
