Summer Session 2: M.C. Escher Week June 22-26 Small Classes with Individual Attention

Students will learn all about the incredible Dutch artist M.C. Escher. He was famous for his mathematically inspired woodcuts and lithographs. They included optical illusions, tessellations, impossible constructions and mind-bending images. His work has had a lasting impact on popular culture. We will create a variety of artwork inspired by his work, including prints and tessellations.

Campers will get their own camp shirt to wear for the week, which they will keep in the studio to use as a smock.
