All interactions between students and the teacher will happen on the class page. This class will be presented via powerpoint. Students will upload images of their assignments for the teacher to see and comment on. This is particularly important if a final grade is required for homeschool or charter school credit.

Week 1Lesson 1Introduction to Robin Mead; Starting the ArtWe will study who Robin Mead is, her contribution to art, and her art style, and begin using the elements of art to draw a sunset with ocean waves that is inspired by her art. We will outline this drawing with a Sharpie and color in small details with colored pencils or crayons.Week 2Lesson 2Finishing the ArtWe will review Mead's art style, and review warm vs. cool colors. We will use warm colors (reds, oranges and yellows) to paint the sunset and cool colors (blues, greens and purples) to paint the ocean and some other land details such as tree leaves, etc.
I am a licensed art teacher with over 30 years' experience in public schools. I love to bring art history alive by connecting my students with the amazing work of contemporary artists that they can identify with. For more inspiration, Robin Mead's work can be found on Pinterest and Instagram.
