Educational Delights and Explorations
Celebratory Adventures in Art and the Creative Process.
In this educational series, Katie Swatland offers discoveries, lessons, and delights in painting and the artistic process. A wide variety, ranging from step-by-step demonstrations with high-resolution images, to stories and exercises for children.
With this series in its beginning stages, the details regarding its description will continue to expand and evolve with time. I invite you to check back here from time to time as this series grows.
The intention with this educational collection is to explore the many facets of the creative process, share educational insights into the nuances on the art of painting, and offer a combination of both sophisticated information for the experienced artist, as well as foundational explorations in light and color, which I refer to as ‘delights.’ Primarily directed toward a younger audience as a way to invite them into the beautiful world ofthe Arts, these ‘delights’ will often be told in storybook
form, and will serve as a wonderful resource for parents to share with their little ones. I have been creating these stories and educational exercises for my nephew and nieces, and I am excited to share them with you and your family.
I hope you will enjoy this new series. I will continue to create it with the same loving care, and hold it to a high standard of excellence, as I did with my first educational offering, ‘Learning with Richard Schmid.’ Lesson credits will work the same, and be interchangeable between both series.
I look forward to growing and learning with you.
