Foundation-Intermidiate

The Drawing and Painting Class is based on academic and traditional drawing and painting following the European Renaissance, and cultivates and trains students' observational and rendering ability. From the classic art studio to the contemporary academic practices and training, this subject has accumulated a wealth of concrete experience and mature training methods. We tailor the curriculum for each individual student, so that students can get systematic and effective training in a limited time. Concurrently, our teaching philosophy is based on the principle of humanism, and organically integrate humanistic and historical education into the basic curriculum.
