Only pencil and paper is needed to create these fun Animal Drawings! This is the Beginners version of my popular Realistic Animal Drawing Club, no previous experience is necessary. In this Ongoing Drawing Class, we will sketch and learn about a different Animal each week! Learners are welcome to join the club at any point, space permitting. The club structure allows learners to get together each week with familiar faces, in a supportive environment. I create each sketch in advance, and then teach the class to draw their very own, step-by-step using simple shapes and lines, in a social and engaging setting! 
It's all about having FUN while exercising our creativity! I like to give my students the 'Artistic freedom' to add their own spin on each piece we create. Students will be encouraged to show off their artwork during the draw-along and engage with questions and answers. Learning about each animal that we're creating is half the fun! (For sake of time, learners will be guided to stay on topic)
We will be discussing and practicing shading techniques during this class to add shadow and dimension to our animals. Learners are also welcome to add color to their drawings after class. 
I use a second camera, so learners are able to see the in-progress and completed drawing up close. **Chromebook users- Please be sure your Chromebook is capable of using 'Gallery View' on Zoom in advance

This class will begin with a short introduction and meet and greet of the class, then we will dive in! 

Here is what we will be drawing each week! This list is updated regularly:

Previous week: Orcas -Mother’s Day themed!
-Week of 5/12- 5/18: Clown Fish


Attendance Policy:
The class will begin on time. In order to create a smooth class for my students, we will have to continue forward if a learner arrives late. All of my classes are recorded. If a learner arrives tardy to the class or is unable to attend a meeting, I will encourage them to watch the recording after class to catch up on anything they may have missed.

Learning Goals
My ultimate goal for this class is to create and nurture a love for Art in my students. 
Learning goals for this class are to create a drawing that we are happy with, one step at a time! I would also like my students to be able to walk away with the basics of sketching and shading techniques, and some basic skills that can be applied towards future drawings.
