CreARTive Curves. What sets us apart?
Learning Art improves critical thinking and creativity. Through Creativity innovation is possible. But are we learning art the right way?
"I believe art education needs to focus on developing learners that think like artists ."
Cindy Foley
Conventional art and art lessons teach skills that can be assessed and tested. The learning is centered around quantifiable skills of re-creation and repetition. This is not wrong, but is it correct? Our ability to design and our individuality has a purpose in this world. To showcase our ability, we must challenge ourselves to think outside the box. The vision of CreARTive curves is to stimulate out-of-the-box thinking through consistent engagements and opportunities using art as a medium.
​
Our Projects and Lesson Plans aim to hone creative thinking and artistic capabilities.
Art is the means to develop your right brain, so that innovation and new ideas become goals and not just dreams.

My name is Sharanya Sudhakar
Art.... color.... perspective.... shape.... joy....
Art is my passion and my hobby. I developed an interest in art from a very young age and have pursued it relentlessly ever since. I finished Computer Programming with Animation, 3D Graphics & Game Development at the University of Washington. I currently work as a Technical Artist at EA. I work on the Madden game and love what I do every single day. Art is my creative center and it defines who I am.
​
I rejoice in teaching art. I want to inspire and nurture learning in art so everyone can become a better artist here and better creative thinkers everywhere else. Art is a journey, not just to nurture a technique but to inspire confidence, creative thinking and self expression. Through this journey everyone learns to look at the world from a very different perspective, because art is about nature & us and how we interpret it.
​
On this creative journey I have understood and mastered a few techniques. This is my small give back to YOU. Find the joy in art and let it redefine YOU, as it did me.
