Explore the Cosmos: Design Your Own Planet Adventure! 🌌🪐 Greetings, Outschool Artists and Parents! Join our cosmic journey to learn fascinating space facts and create your very own planet. In this engaging class, young learners dive into landscapes found on other planets and moons, from erupting volcanos to rocky mountains and frozen oceans. Guided through a step-by-step drawing of a martian landscape, we'll explore foreground, middle ground, background, and shading techniques. Dive into art terms like circle, oval, cone, cylinder, sphere, variety, movement, pattern, texture, and contrast. While the class structure provides guidance, there's ample room for creative expression. What's the temperature on your planet? What gases fill the atmosphere? How many moons orbit your world? Is it habitable, and who might live there? Share your imaginative ideas; the possibilities are infinite! Why Join the Cosmic Adventure? 🚀 Small class size (max 6 learners) ensures individual attention. 🎨 Creative exploration encouraged; every drawing is unique. 🌠 Questions are welcome throughout the class. 🌟 Learners can share their creative planets with the class. Let's embark on a cosmic journey of creativity together! 🌠🪐 Important Notes: 👉 Class will not be canceled due to low enrollment. 🌈 In case of a full section, the class may run an extra 5 minutes to accommodate everyone. *I also have a watercolor version of this class.
