Students will be guided step-by-step in the process of drawing a beautiful Griffin. We will discuss the features of an eagle and a lion, and how they are combined to create this creature. Students will learn simple steps for drawing feathers, feet, and other features for the eagle and lion body parts. A ground may be added if desired. My teaching style involves breaking the process down into smaller, easy-to-follow steps. I pace the class according to the needs of the students; if needed, I give fast finishers a break, allowing students who need more time to complete their work, the time to do so, and even then, finishing before class ends is NOT the objective. My classes are intended to be fun, informative, and a safe place to take artistic risks and make mistakes--that is experimentation, which artists do all the time! We will share our griffins in a short class critique at the very end.

As a licensed art teacher, I have developed techniques for breaking down drawing lessons into simple, easy-to-follow steps. Once we get the basics done, I give my students freedom to complete their project using their own imagination, thereby giving them the opportunity to take what I have taught them to a different, fun and creative level.
