Class Experience

Each day in this class students will learn about a famous dog artwork from art history and create an artwork inspired by it.  We will begin our class with a discussion of our famous dog artwork.  Then I will lead students through a  step by step demonstration of how to make their own dog masterpieces.  Throughout the process students are encouraged to add their own creative touches to their artworks.  As students work, I always make sure to provide feedback, encouragement, and additional instructions as needed.  If time allows our young artists will have the opportunity to share their artwork with their classmates.

**Although each demonstration will be finished by the end of class, students may need or wish to continue working on their masterpiece after we have signed off for the day.  Everyone works at a different speed, and it's better to take our time than to rush!  

Day 1: Blue Dog (Georges Rodrigue)
Day 2: Balloon Dog (Jeff Koons)
Day 3: Wet Dog (Iris Scott)
Day 4: Realistic Dog (Rosa Bonheur)

Supplies Needed Each Day:
- 9x12 Thicker white paper suitable for painting (80lb weight or higher; I like Canson (100510941) XL Series Watercolor Pad, 9" x 12", Fold-Over Cover, 30 Sheets)
- Pencil with eraser
- Crayons or oil pastels
- Sharpie or other permanent black marker
- Watercolor set (Prang or Crayola recommended)
- Watercolor brush
- Container with water (a container with a wider base or a bowl is less likely to spill)
- Paper towels
**You may also want a piece of poster board or large paper to cover the work area.

Learning Goals

-Students will become familiar with a variety of famous artists and artworks from art history.
-Students will be able to use basic shapes to draw a picture.  This is a skill they can apply to other drawings as well.
-Students will be able to use introductory watercolor techniques to add color and personality to their artwork.

I have taught elementary art for over 16 years and each of my lessons is developed thoughtfully and practiced ahead of time, keeping in mind student skill level and interests.  I am passionate about helping young artists find their unique artistic voices and therefore balance guided drawing with creative expression in this lesson.  I provide positive encouragement to students throughout our class time and hope they enjoy this project as much as I do.
