In this 2 week camp, your learner will create their own unique cartoon family or team along with the world they live in. We will meet 3 times each week learning new art fundamentals each lesson. Over this camp we will create a unique cartoon family or team and the place they live. I will guide your learner through this. They have the option to do any idea for characters they like. I will have prompts for them if would need them, for example, super heroes, animals, color themed, princess, etc. I will be working on a super hero family team and they will be welcome to use this same idea. Each lesson will be structured in a similar way: Part 1: A quick introduction to explain to students the class and what will be taught. Part 2: A drawing game to get the creative juices flowing. I will give the learners a silly prompt and a time limit to draw silly characters. I will also participate. Part 3: The lesson, a lecture with drawing examples. Some times this will involve the students drawing along. Part 4: A little movement. As a professional artist I only work 30 minutes without standing, stretching, and giving myself a little shake. It is only for a minute but it is very important. Part 5: Now is the time for learners to put into practice what I have showed them. This is drawing time where we will draw together. Part 6: Show and tell time. Any student that feels comfortable showing what they have drawn is free to show what they have created. If any learner has any questions I will answer them here.
