This course is a 10-week course divided into 2 sections: Digital making and Physical making. It is designed to give your learner the confidence to be creative both in a digital world and physical world. At the end of the course, your learner will have gained new knowledge about making and four new projects to be proud of! 1. Weeks 1 and 2 will focus on artistic digital making where students will learn how to use Adobe to create vector drawings and illustrations. (You will need access to Adobe and Adobe Illustrator for this part) 2. Weeks 3 and 4 will focus on professional digital making where students will learn how to use Adobe to create professional outcomes, such as bookmaking. (You will need access to Adobe and Adobe InDesign for this part) 3. Weeks 5-10 will focus on physical making using our hands to create a painting, drawing, or sculpture. (You will need access to paintbrushes, paints, artist plaster, etc.) This is a very interactive, engaging, and fun class! We will work together to create our own unique designs and share them with one another along the way. At the end of the 10-week course, we will present our work to one another during our virtual exhibition. It's going to be A LOT of fun! I can't wait to learn and design with you! If you have any questions related to the course, please feel free to reach out to me and I will be more than happy to provide additional information!
Learning Goals

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Architecture from Iowa State University
Hello! My name is Bethanie Jones and I am an architectural designer, educator, and artist residing in Seattle, Washington. I hold a BA in Architecture from Iowa State University and a specialization in UX/UI design from the California Institute of the Arts.
As a designer and artist, I look to allow the rigidity of one discipline to balance the conceptual fluidity of the other. This exchange maintains my hyper sensitivity to space and how users experience space. The tensions in space psychology, how beauty is perceived, the unseeable, and finding sensation in the seemingly mundane are at the front of my practice.
Additionally, I love to spend my time investing back into education by teaching kids on Outschool. I am a firm believer in mentorship and inspiring independent thought through self-learning. My hope is to bring joy and excitement while providing clear structure, direction, and self-rule to make a lasting impact for learners.
Recently, I have been the recipient of numerous awards and grants in recognition of my continuing effort in the architecture and design community. My recognitions are a testament to the dedication and heart that I bring to the industry, art, and education.
Please join me :) let's hangout, learn, and design together!
