Class Experience

SPRING! Spring is one of the four Earth’s seasons, that goes after winter. In this time of the year, days become longer and the weather gets better, warmer. Coming of spring means rebirth. Rebirth of nature, a lot of animals wake up from the hibernation, birds return to their homes. Spring season means more outdoors walking and spending time outside, on nature. A lot of plants and trees are growing and new, bright green leaves appearing on them. Flowers are blooming and soon enough we will be able to feel this amazing smell in the air. This season is very artistic and inspiring as well! 

Let's celebrate the arrival of Spring together by doing these fun art and craft projects! 

Day 1 - FLUFFY CATS. Watercolor painting.
Day 2 - RAINY DAY. Illustration.
Day 3 - FLOWER BUNNY. Collage.
Day 4 - FUN PICNIC. Modeling clay or Play Doh project.
Day 5 - HUNGRY FROG. Collage.
Day 6 - SECRET EGGS. Watercolor+graphic+collage project. 

Note: Please see the supply list below! I will remind you about the upcoming class and the supply list your child will be needing in advance. 

My main principle - there are no mistakes and wrong decisions in the creative process! Everyone, even the smallest artist, has his/her own path. In my classes, I will not ask students to mindlessly repeat after me. I will show them step-by-step examples and different options, so students will be able to bring their personal touches and ideas into their artworks.

Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

Master's Degree from Tyumen State University

My name is Elena Galindo, and I am a children's book illustrator specializing in creating fun and whimsical digital illustrations in a playful and adorable style. I am excited to introduce myself and share a little bit about me with you.

I have been creating illustrations that bring stories to life with lively characters, cute and cheeky animals, and colorful landscapes. Children are my favorite audience, as they inspire and motivate me to create illustrations that can spark their imagination and ignite their curiosity.

In addition to creating illustrations, I also teach digital art to children. This has given me valuable insight into what children are interested in and what captures their attention. I am always looking for new ways to engage children with my illustrations

I have a bachelor’s and master's degree in Human Resources with a large portion being focused on training and development. I have also taken several art courses in painting techniques. Additionally, as a mother of two, I enjoy teaching my kids about art and languages. I show them the importance of cultural diversity and multicultural integration.

My philosophy is that everyone has the potential to be great. The importance is to guide students with fun and interactive courses to keep their focus on the task at hand.  

I would love to be your paintbrush buddy and I hope to see you in my classes. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me and I will be happy to help.
