Class experience

US Grade 5 - 8
Beginner - Intermediate Level
4 lessons//1 Week
 Week 1
Lesson 1
Painting a Sunset
We will discuss the colors commonly found in sunsets. The teacher will demonstrate wet-on-wet painting with watercolor paints, using sunset colors. Students will use what they have learned to create one or more sunset paintings.
Lesson 2
Galaxy Sky
We will discuss the night sky and how the Milky Way Galaxy can sometimes be seen by the naked eye in very dark locations. The teacher will demonstrate a slightly different wet-on-wet technique for painting a night sky with the nebulous imagery of a galaxy.
Lesson 3
Silhouettes
We will discuss the properties of a silhouette and practice a few ideas in pencil. Once students have their designs for their silhouettes figured out, we will begin painting the first one on the first painting.
Lesson 4
Finishing the Paintings
We will finish the first painting if needed and paint the silhouette on the second painting. If time allows, teacher will also show students a simple technique for dotting the galaxy sky with stars using white paint.
As a licensed art teacher, I have developed techniques for breaking down drawing and painting lessons into simple, easy-to-follow steps. Once we get the basics done, I give my students freedom to complete their project using their own imagination, thereby giving them the opportunity to take what I have taught them to a different, fun and creative level.
Homework Offered
Not required, but students are welcome and encouraged to work on assignments and practice further between class sessions.
0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
