Home-Study and Studio Art Instruction for Children and Adults-Teacher Training
The New Masters™ curriculum is a rigorous system of instruction that makes professional level accuracy in drawing and painting available to all students regardless of their ages or skill levels prior to enrollment.
In this system, the tasks of drawing and painting have been broken down into steps so small and arranged into sequences so logical that anyone -- even those with below normal abilities -- can follow and master them, even to the highest levels.
The curriculum is mastery-based. Students are expected to master each step before moving on to the next and are provided the means to do so: proven instructional methods that help them identify and solve all of the problems that prevent or delay the mastery of a skill.
The New Masters™ curriculum follows the direct-perception tradition. Students learn by drawing and painting what they see, as they see it -- duplicating artists’ originals with a high degree of accuracy before moving on to the greater challenges of drawing and painting directly from life.
