Chony's Art School is based on the premise that no two art works will ever be alike. It is project-based, which means students will be creating an art work at times for up to 4 weeks and then the materials and processes will alternate. Participants are guided to explore and express themselves using at times- clay, watercolour, acrylic paint, sketching, sculpture, intuitive mark making, and collage (just to name a few).
