This course will dive deeply into the art of drawing! This advanced class is meant to challenge your learner and push them far in their artistic skills. All artistic styles (ranging from abstract to cartoon to realistic) and levels of skill are welcome! In all of my classes, I work hard to differentiate and individualize my teaching so that each student is appropriately challenged based on their skill set and personality. When starting this course, it is most important for your learner to already have a strong interest in drawing, even if they are fairly new to practicing art in their own time. If your learner already has a drawing style that they love to work in, I will teach them to hone in on and refine it to their satisfaction. If your learner is unsure of what style they like to draw in, I will help them discover their preference by pushing them to experiment with a wide variety of skills. We will cover a large variety of drawing materials and subjects such still-life, human figure and portraits, characters, prompt projects with a specific material and so much more while working towards conceptualizing our artworks. To conceptualize artwork means to create artwork that has a meaning behind it. I find that this can be incredibly rewarding to learners of every age as it creates an outlet for their emotions, experiences, and interests, as well as provides an additional aspect for them to connect to while creating their pieces. Through each project, students will learn and practice techniques to help them be analytical about their artwork. This is a skill that will benefit their artistic process long after their completion of this course. I will be a friend to your student, and will highly encourage them while pushing their skills forward. Please contact me prior to starting. The section you are interested in may be in the middle of a project.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Dear Families,
I have loved and cherished art for my entire life and my hope is that I may be able to ignite or strengthen this love for art within my students. I want to extend to you and your child my warmest welcome into my virtual classroom.
My philosophy for learning in the art room revolves around differentiating instruction for each student’s individual needs. Coming together into the classroom, we each bring with us our goals, desires, our histories, our struggles, and our joys. Art allows us to express these aspects about ourselves and I believe it is important to do so. Through each of our projects, I will work with every individual learner to adjust the parameters to their interests and skill set while challenging them to always push forward.
Through my virtual classroom, I will be teaching art classes in painting, drawing, and even some sculpture for all ages and for all creative minds! We will work with a wide variety of materials, techniques, and analytical thought processes in each of my classes.
Through my undergraduate career, I received a BFA in Studio Art with an emphasis in Sculpture and a BSE in K-12 Art Education, both in the spring of 2023. Beginning in the Fall of 2023, I will be pursuing a Master's in Fine Art in the highly ranked MFA program at Arizona State University. I have been teaching on Outschool since May of 2020 and have assisted artists in residence and students at the Carving Studio and Sculpture Center in Vermont during their summer 2022 stone carving workshops. I have created and sold a wide variety of artwork professionally, such as drawings, paintings, and sculptures, and have exhibited in a variety of art galleries. I am highly passionate about art and I strongly believe that when doing artwork, you are building a relationship with your materials and the creation itself. Throughout my time doing and practicing artwork, I have learned that art is a powerful force that can be meditative and help connect you with yourself and the values you carry.
With all this being said, I am happy to receive any comments, questions, or concerns through Outschool messaging. I look forward to working with your child and supporting them in every step of the process through their artistic endeavors!
Sincerely,
Amelia LaChanceReviews
