Beginner Sketchbook Drawings 8 week Course Learn to Draw Amazing Things

Anyone can Learn to draw.  As long as the student has a desire to learn drawing, I can teach them how.
 If you are interested in my Ongoing Weekly Sketchbook Class , https://outschool.com/classes/draw-with-me-weekly-sketchbook-drawings-vxIuhTIr but are not sure if you or your student is ready for intermediate drawings,  this course is the place to start. I recommend starting here even if you are already enjoying and good at drawing. 
                                              Class format 
  We will meet 1 time per week for 8 weeks. 
    Each day we will start class with warm ups and exercises that begin the training of seeing like an artist. We will then move in to our drawing. At the end of class students will be given an assignment to practice during the week on their own. This outside class practice will help student to use the skills they learned and enhance their progress.
                                         Who is this class for?
  Both beginners and those who have been drawing on their own and could use some fundamental training will benefit from this class.
                                                   Supplies
    Students will need a set of Graphite Pencils for this class, I will teach them how to use these pencils.  
     I believe that good quality supplies and beautiful subjects help inspire young artists to create and to feel confident in their work.

Class 1   Line: sketching lightly, seeing lines, landscapes
     We will start with simple lines using graphite pencils in different ways to achieve different line widths, values and effects. Students will be amazed how these simple lines help us create gorgeous landscapes in this first class.
Class 2  Shapes: basic shapes geometric and organic, simple subjects 
       We will move on to basic shapes, introducing geometric and organic shapes we will  have fun going back to basics and loosely sketching all over the page,  circles, squares triangles and fun organic shapes.  We will then begin to put these shapes together to create simple drawings.  
Class 3  Shading: techniques, value, form
     In this lesson I will show students how to use varying pressures on their pencils to create a value scale of light to dark.  These values will enable us to create form in our drawings and give it the "3D" look or "realistic" they want to achieve. We will use our pencils in different ways  to create texture.
Class 4  English Robin and Sparrow
Class 5  Blue Jay and Black capped Chickadee
    I absolutely love to teach drawing with the beautiful subject of birds!! They are one of my favorite subjects in my own artwork, and the perfect way to learn drawing skills. Birds are simple and easy to draw yet detailed and intricate enough to inspire an amazing finished drawing. 
Class 6. Bird (Students Choice) 
    After students have completed 3 or 4 birds directed by me they will pick from several reference photos and complete a bird of their choosing.
Class 7.  Jellyfish
     Any student who has been in my weekly sketchbook class for some time has probably done this Jellyfish! It is the first drawing I started with in my drawing class and I make sure every student get's this one in. It is a great beginner drawing with amazing results.
Class 8  Students will choose subject via Voting process 
    At this point students are ready to dive into drawing whatever they like.  In this last class we will vote on the drawing we will do, just like the format I use in my weekly drawing classes.
