| Details | Made possible with the support of the City of New Haven Join us at the Ives Main Library downtown for a special, in-person art program with Kwasi Adae from (New Haven’s own) Adae Fine Art Studio on 840 State Street. Students in these courses will be taught ways to develop their skills in drawing from observation. Students can expect to work in pencil and watercolor. This course will cover the basics of pencil drawing and watercolor painting. Media examples will be available and lessons will center around concepts, techniques, and skills to teach students in honing and expanding their abilities as artists in the 2D plane of operation. Students will also be encouraged to expand their comfort zones and try new things to gain more confidence in their skills as artists.

Instructor Bio: My name is Kwasi Adae, and I’m a Mural Assistant at the Adae Fine Art Academy (AFAA) in New Haven, CT. I’ve been drawing and painting since age four and working at the academy for as long as I’ve been able to hold a brush or a broom. I have worked on 12 mural projects in association with the AFAA, I was awarded the Jean B. Shepler Fine Arts Prize in 2020, and have been creating and selling my own work consistently for approximately four years. |
