KJS Brush & Canvass is a visual art and painting class based in north western Sydney. KJS programme and art lessons have been designed to give students a rewarding art experience in a nurturing, creative, and inspiring environment.
We develop technical skills in drawing, painting, mixed media, printmaking, collage, clay, sculpture, ceramic, canvas and fabric painting and glazing.
Our programme and art classes give students confidence by allowing them to experiment with a wide range of media. We teach art terminology and help students recognise their own strengths and weaknesses as an artist and polish their skills as an artist. The programme and classes also change from term to term, meaning students stay interested and challenged. We aim to make our programme enjoyable for the students as they will learn more when they enjoy what they do.
Our teachers are working with children to check complaints and the environment is safe for the kids to learn. The art programs include some of the following:
- Learning to really look and see
- Black and white line drawing
- 3D perspective
- Different art styles (e.g. Impressionism, Cubism)
- Colour theory – mixing colours
- Pattern and composition
- Basic shapes – natural and manmade
- Animals/fantasy animals
- The natural world – insects, plants, flowers, fish
- Various printmaking methods

ART Warm Ups
Did you know all children are inborn artists? How do we make them better? Well, we let the little ones be themselves. Art warm-ups help kids do what they love while we comprehend their interests.
Children’s art represents the children’s minds and it reflects what they know about the world. Art is used as a tool for children to express their emotions, feelings and experiences daily. We strongly believe that a child’s artwork should be judged based on the expression of sincerity from a child’s heart. Our KJS is specially designed to promote the children’s artistry and psychological-development and also to help the children in the development of creativity and thinking skills through fun art activities.
