Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
Beginner - Intermediate Level
This class is part of my Contemporary Artist Series, in which we learn about artists from the mid-20th century to today, analyze their art style and subject, and make a creation inspired by their art.
 
Through the guided drawing and painting process, students will learn how to create a sunset painting inspired by the art of Robin Mead

My teaching style involves breaking the process down into smaller, easy-to-follow steps. I pace the class according to the needs of the students; if needed, I give fast finishers a break, allowing students who need more time to complete their work, the time to do so, and even then, finishing before class ends is NOT the objective. The examples in the picture are only suggestive; students may also request a particular favorite if time allows.
My classes are intended to be fun, informative, and a safe place to take artistic risks and make mistakes--that is experimentation, which artists do all the time!
At the end of class, students will be invited to share their creations no matter what their progress is.


Background knowledge in art concepts and/or the artist is helpful but not necessary!

More detailed information about this class can be found in the syllabus.

Lesson 1:
Introduction to Robin Mead; Starting the Art
 We will study who Robin Mead is, her contribution to art, and her art style, and begin using the elements of art to draw a sunset with ocean waves that is inspired by her art. We will outline this drawing with a Sharpie and color in small details with colored pencils or crayons.

Lesson 2:
Finishing the Art
 We will review Mead's art style, and review warm vs. cool colors. We will use warm colors (reds, oranges and yellows) to paint the sunset and cool colors (blues, greens and purples) to paint the ocean and some other land details such as tree leaves, etc.

As a licensed art teacher, I have developed techniques for breaking down drawing 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.
