"Opposing Players"

Get ready to dive into a whirlwind of color and motion! 
Our talented emerging artist Mathew T. has pushed the boundaries of watercolor with an exhilarating splashing technique that brings his “Opposing Players” scene to life.
 Although these figures are separate paintings, taken together, each vibrant splash and brushstroke captured the energy of two figures locked in dynamic play—proof that experimentation can transform a simple idea into an unforgettable work of art. ​
At The Art of Excellence Studio, we believe that growth comes from daring to try something new. 

At the Art of Excellence Studio, young artists hone their observational skills with a fun and delicious project! Students bring their favorite fruit to the studio, sketch it, and then enjoy a few bites.
Afterward, they return to their work, redraw the fruit, and repeat the process until their snack is finished.

Once the series of sketches is complete, the student analyzes the values in each drawing and uses those insights to create a final watercolor painting of the composition!  This is Eva S.'s painting of her  apple.
