This class is designed to take you out of your artistic safe space and shake up your skills and ideas surrounding art. Each day, we will make a drawing or a doodle using a different drawing tool. There will be 3 choice prompts to choose from. You can work on one or all three-which is entirely up to you. I will post the 3 prompts onto the screen through screen share, put on some instrumental music, and give you the space to let you explore the work at hand. At the end of class, I will allow time for sharing that day's creations as an option. This is a camp, so talking and chit-chat are very welcome. We are here to create and have fun.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Vermont Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Bachelor's Degree in Art and Design from Massachusetts College of Art and Design
Hi there! My name is Tessa DeForge. I live in the beautiful state of Vermont with my husband, 2 silly dogs and 2 precocious cats. I graduated from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2011 and hold a bachelor's in Art Education.
I am very passionate about education. I have taught in a traditional setting for 10 years as a 6-12 art teacher and as an early educator. I love to teach a multitude of things through art and play. Some of the classes I offer are: Art Social Group, Crochet Club, 1;1 Knitting and Crochet classes, as well as social groups, to name a few. I am always looking to expand on my class list. The skies the limit when it comes to art and I hope to have some more exciting classes up and running in the very near future.
