A year in art with Garden City Drawing Board


With the end of 2022 fast approaching, art students at Garden City Drawing Board have wrapped up their second year with some outstanding achievements in realism drawing and painting.

Lead by hyperrealism artist, Kate Haanraadts, GCDB teaches the foundations of realism to students in grades 5 and up, as well as adults. Students work in graphite, colored pencil, and watercolor. They choose their own projects and work at their own pace. The primary goal of the program is to train the students’ eye how to see accurately, utilize proper techniques, and advance their skills and confidence.

Some notable achievements:

  • GC Historical Society Winners: Eva Vitale, Evelyn Haanraadts, Alina Spieler
  • The Rockefeller Flag Project: Eva Vitale
  • The Belmont Art Contest: Evelyn Haanraadts
  • PTA Reflections: Eva Vitale

Congratulations to all the students on their hard work and success and we are looking forward to see what they can do in 2023!
