The 3 Levels taught at Pro's Art School have specific goals designed to allow students to reach their full potential at their own pace.

LEVEL I - Learn to use a grid to draw any subject. paint the object in monochromatic - detect shapes and values of each object through squinting. apply the paint thinly on the canvas for control purposes. learn to use brush pressure to create detailed blending. acquire the basic skills of mixing one or more colors.

LEVEL II - Learn to draw or paint freehand, still life, portraits and Landscapes. Create an underpainting where you build your composition foundation & plan light and dark areas. Use monochromatics and understand it's function. Recognize and paint the important shapes and values and leave out trivial detail. Recognize when to use soft and hard edges. Paint the inside of a flower or a field of grass without painting every individual blade of grass.

LEVEL III - drawing - tonal values - composition. Learn to draw a composition so the viewer's eye moves throughout the piece. Gain the knowledge of paint thickness, brush strokes and colour harmony. Develop primary and secondary areas of interest and have the ability to handle the dead or quiet areas, so that the composition from corner to corner feels connected. View and study the Masters' paintings and understand their compositions.

Staff and students learn in a constructive environment with a relaxed atmosphere. A pleasant standard of behavior is required. Any violation, including confrontation, abusive language, putting others down or any behavior deemed, by the school, to be in violation of its standards will result in expulsion. The School becomes a way of life, a lifestyle you enjoy. The School Culture provides the opportunity to improve your art skills while enjoying the company & knowledge of fellow artists.
