Love Avatar: The Last Airbender and would love an art course focused on your favorite characters? What to focus on understanding how to draw portraits at different angles of different genders? This class is designed for you!

In this ten-week course, students focus on portraits of Avatar: The Last Airbender characters. Students will utilize different techniques and approaches to execute a portrait of each character. Students will learn how to measure, how to use their pencil as a measuring tool, proper proportions, utilize guidelines, and how to use simple shapes to create a complex form. 

Each week will be a break down of the chosen characters face. Students will be shown step-by-step on how to approach, measure, focus on proportions and how to execute the unique Avatar style. Students should expect to draw the profile facing forward, 3/4th profile, side profile and more! Students will be able to walk away understanding how to draw a portrait at different angles. Eighty-five percent of the class will focus on sketching and drawing. The remaining fifteen percent will be offering tips of how to execute coloring. This will remain loose as each student may utilize different coloring materials.  

This class is designed for the Avatar fan who wants to take their drawings to the next level. Art experience is not necessary but helpful. This class is geared towards intermediate artists.

Why Flex?
🔰 Flex classes are fantastic for international students (Mrs. V is located in Texas). 
🔰 Students can work at their own pace. No need to wait on others or feel rushed. 
🔰 Flex classes are an excellent choice for families with busy schedules. 
🔰 This class is a "flex" class, meaning there is no live component, and all interactions between students and the teacher happens on the class page. The live version links are at the beginning of this class description. 

FLEX FORMAT: 
🔹 Video Content: Weekly videos with a step-by-step breakdown of the art assignments are posted. Some videos will have a 20 to 35 minute duration. The work time for the student will be roughly an hour long. Students will review the video. 
🔹 Discussion Prompt/Question/Check-in: Students respond to a weekly discussion prompt and/or question(s) posted by the teacher. 
🔹 Complete Artwork: Students spend time completing their sketches. 
🔹 Submit Artwork: Students are required to post photos of their completed sketches in the classroom on the designated post. If the student would prefer to keep this private, they can post privately to the teacher as well. Keep in mind, sharing artwork is essential in a flex class.
