OUR
HISTORY
The Seufert Art
Studio was founded in 1972 by Robert J. Seufert.
Thousands of children, teens and adults have passed through our doors since
those beginning years, with a great deal of joy and satisfaction
expressed. In 1982, Robert's future wife, Alice, a certified art
teacher, began teaching at the studio, primarily working with
children. Over the years, we have developed many courses with lesson
plans which nurture both growth and enjoyment of the fine arts for young and
old.
|
THE
FACILITY
This facility, with a 500 square foot teaching area, was
designed to be an art studio. It is beautifully lighted and the
atmosphere is conductive to great learning.
Parking is easy because we have also constructed a well illuminated parking lot
for our customers.
|
CONVENIENT CLASS TIMES
Classes for children are
conducted after school hours, in the evening and on Saturdays during the school
year. During the summer, class times are held during the day and in the
evenings during the week.
Adult classes are held during the day and during the evenings
during the week. Saturday classes are also available.
|
SMALL CLASS SIZE
No class has more than eleven students and some adult classes have as few as
eight. This affords each student a very sufficient level of individual
attention.
|
REASONABLE TUITIONS
Many people who contact our studio are pleased to hear how affordable our
courses are. They are even more satisfied when they see the total
dedication to each student and the quality of the instruction.

Summer. Most semesters are for ten (10) weeks, depending on the course.

CAREERS
IN ART
Your child's future may include art as a career. After having studied
with us, many of our students have gone on to very successful careers in
art. Some have received full or partial scholarships to professional art
schools and universities. Many of our adult students come back year after
year to illustrate their satisfaction. We are proud of all our students.

YOUNGER
CHILDREN'S PROGRAM
We accept children as young as eight years of age and
we bracket the younger student's classes from that age up to approximately
twelve years of age. In this age group, we offer a wide variety of lesson
plans ranging from traditional fine art drawing and painting of subjects like
still life, portraiture, scenery, etc., to three dimensional projects in clay,
to cartooning, to commercial art assignments. As well as developing
stronger drawing skills, we also emphasize creativity and
self-expression. Every lesson plan is well thought out, appropriate for
this age level, challenging, yet enjoyable and rewarding. Media includes
pencil, charcoal, pastel, W/C, ink, clay, etc. (all materials safe for young
children) Classes are one hour and 15 minutes in length. Classes
are restricted to 11 students maximum, so we can give individual attention to
each student.
|
TEEN
PROGRAM
Our second age bracket begins at approximately twelve
to thirteen years of age and goes up through senior high school students.
These courses are structured chronologically beginning with three foundation
drawing courses. These courses include the basic nuts and bolts of how to
draw in pencil, charcoal, ink, color pencil and pastel. Subject matter
includes still life, portraiture, architecture, cartooning, basic color and
design, etc.
Once our students have successfully completed these
prerequisite courses, they may choose from a number of advanced workshop
courses. These courses are designed so that a student may concentrate on
one area of study in the visual arts.
Courses include: Portraiture, caricature, animal anatomy, watercolor painting,
oil painting, clay sculpture, graphic design and illustration, super heroes,
graphics, cartooning, chalk media, realistic drawing and more. Classes
are 1½ hours in length. Class size is a maximum of 11
students.

PORTFOLIO
PREPARATION COURSES
These courses are designed specifically for Juniors and Seniors in High School
who are looking to pursue a career in art or art education. Students
concentrate on improving their skills at all levels of the visual arts.
Emphasis is placed on drawing from life, creativity and design aspects.
Assistance is given to students who must fulfill specific requirements for
certain schools. Current and past students are and have been accepted by
many of the top rated art schools and universities in
the country. Classes are 1½ hours in length. Maximum class size
is 11.
|
ADULT
PROGRAM
When an adult approaches us to take classes, we immediately determine what
their skill level is by either verbally asking what experience they have had or
we review their work. If they are a beginner or someone who has been away
from art for a long time, we request that they take some drawing courses before
they attempt to paint.
Our adult drawing program is similar to our teen
foundation drawing courses. They are meant to provide a greater
understanding of and appreciation for some of the basic elements that support a
successful painting. Classes are one and a half to two hours in
length. Class size is a maximum of 11 students.

watercolor. Flat and gradated washes, wet into wet applications and dry
brushing are among the elements covered in the early weeks. Soon
thereafter students are painting pictures using these learned techniques.
Subsequent courses are designed to improve the students range of ability.
Classes are one and a half to two hours in length. Maximum class size is 11.

OIL
PAINTING (ADULTS AND TEENS)
Students who take oil painting learn the basics of how to work in this
forgiving medium. Adults and teens are encouraged to select a variety of
easy subjects at first, to help build their confidence. As with all other
courses, students are taught an understanding of their materials. Brush
and painting knife techniques are explained. Oil courses range in time
from one and a half hours to two hours. Classes are limited to 8
