In this 8 lesson course, we will create Squishmallow inspired drawings! Each lesson I will post a video demonstrating a guided drawing of a new Squishmallow! Students can personalize their background and make creative choices. I will show students several examples to help with the brainstorming process! No prior knowledge is needed. Students have the choice of media-markers, watercolor or color pencil will all work for these drawings. I will be using fine marker & color pencil in my demonstrations. In lessons I show students how to create the outline of the drawing first. Then we add color and value to the drawing. I demonstrate to students how to create value in color pencil by building the layers. This creates a more realistic and dimensional drawing. Lesson One: In this lesson students will draw a Penguin. Lesson Two: In this lesson students will draw a Dog. Lesson Three: In this lesson students will draw a Cow. Lesson Four: In this lesson students will draw a Unicorn. Lesson Five: In this lesson students will draw an Axolotl. Lesson Six: In this lesson students will draw a Rainbow Raccoon. Lesson Seven: In this lesson students will draw a Chipmunk. Lesson Eight: In this lesson students will draw a Koala Mermaid.

I have taught high school art for 18 years! Last year I had the opportunity to teach middle school students remotely and loved it! I have taught a variety of courses over my career such as: Fine Arts 1 & 2, Introduction to Photography, Pottery 1 & 2, Introduction to Jewelry, Introduction to Crafts, Introduction to Sculpture, Design 1 & 2.
I believe creating art is a process. It takes making a mess, mistakes and trying again! Creating art is a method of communication with the world!
When I'm not creating art, I love cooking, reading, spending time with friends & family!
