Class Experience

What a cutie! Who doesn't love an adorable cactus? In this creative course, we will illustrate a small cactus with tiny pricklies, an adorable face, and vibrant colors. We will enhance our drawing with some hand-lettering, where we'll use two complementary font styles. This is a great art piece that can be great for wall art or to turn into a framed gift for a friend. 

Students will be guided step-by-step and given creative liberty to change and adapt their compositions as we draw together. 

Card stock is preferred (but not required) for this class as we’re aiming to create a sturdy wall-art piece. Students can also choose color options they prefer most. 

***Please note, some students may not have time to finish coloring their art project in class depending on their optimal drawing speed. I will work at a steady pace and frequently gage where students are at during the lesson. It is my goal to help them finish their drawing, but sometimes this doesn’t allow for coloring completion before class is over. Thank you for understanding.***

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Science from Univeristy of Phoenix
I am a former Art Teacher and had the privilege of teaching Art for 2 years to K-8th grade students using various mediums and forms. A lot of my class instruction was teaching the art of drawing. Weekly, we drew various compositions ranging from seasonal landscapes, wild animals, nature, and portraits. Students enjoyed learning skills to create realistic drawings while adding as much flare and creative variation as they liked. Watching students enjoy making art and grow in their own confidence was truly a priceless gift. In addition to teaching art, I am an artist and have an art studio in my home. I've used my love for hand-lettering and design to start a business in 2015 selling products with my work. It's been so fun!
