Class Experience

In this personalized art study learners will have an opportunity to build skills and develop artistic language through engagement with the teacher only. 
Learners will work on a self directed study of art that is agreed upon at sign up. Learners are welcome to use this time to work on a specific piece or choose from a list of suggested study topics.  A personalized lesson plan will develop based on the learner's individual needs and goals.

Learners must be prepared to engage with the teacher on camera, show work, and complete assignments in order to progress each week. Learners can expect to work 1-2 hours per week on material, more or less time depending on their personal workflow. 

Suggested areas of art study include:
Drawing, drawing with charcoal, observational drawing, portrait drawing, watercolour, mixed media, acrylic painting, colour theory, soft pastels, still life, plein air, paper mache, book illustration, polymer clay, portfolio building, and more. 

Learners outside the recommended age range can be accommodated.

" With a focus on traditional media, old and new art techniques and a core understanding of the principals and elements of art and design, I strive to give learners the tools they need to not only be successful artists but to facilitate the ability to apply those tools to creative thinking and discovery outside the classroom.  In this classroom we are co-learners and we explore the course material together. " - Sharon Ross
