First check out the list of possible portraits below. Once kids are enrolled, parents should mention the name of their favorite portraits to draw and learn shading techniques. If kids have a specific preference in mind that are out of the list, I will be happy to teach them, just ask about it. 
In these portrait art sessions, I have structured the duration to be 55 minutes per session. However, the completion of a portrait can vary based on the complexity of the subject and the individual pace of each student. Some portraits may require more attention to detail, shading, or proportions, which might extend beyond a single session. 

Here is the list:

Cartoon characters: Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Simba, Ariel,  Pikachu, Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle
Animal portraits: Dog, Cat, Horse
Fictional characters:  Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Spider-Man, Luke Skywalker, Frodo Baggins, Bilbo Baggins, Wonder Woman, Captain America, Iron Man, Percy Jackson, Captain  Jack Sparrow, Thanos, Barbie
Real-life inspirations: Nelson Mandela, Malala Yousafzai, Albert Einstein, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Martin Luther King Jr., Oppenheimer

If you do not mention about the choice, I will teach face sketching.

HB pencil and printer paper can be used for beginners. High-quality tools and materials can enhance the work, please check the materials section.

If you have any questions please let me know.

My love for art and craft has been with me since childhood, and after completing my academic and design degrees, I began teaching art to kids. Over time, more kids expressed interest in learning, and it kept me deeply engaged with my passion. This led me to establish my own art school. I expanded my horizons by selling my art worldwide and volunteering as an art docent in elementary schools while teaching as an after-school instructor. 
I guide students through step-by-step processes, explore different styles, and experiment with various art media.
I offer art lessons to students aged 5-17, both in groups and through private one-on-one sessions. In these 14 years I teach a wide range of art media, including watercolor, oil pastels, acrylics, oil painting, sculpture painting, color pencil techniques, sketching, and shading.
Let's embark on this creative journey together!
Besides art and craft, I also love cooking, watching movies, going on hikes in nature, and most importantly, spending quality time with my two lovely kids and my husband.
Thank you!
