In this Dragon Drawing Workshop, your artist will learn how to draw a dragon step by step by using basic shapes & learning drawing skills. In each Workshop, we will create a new dragon design. Lesson Plans: Nov 27 - Peacemaker - Moonwatcher in an egg - Rainwing in a tree - Sand -Nightwing - Kinkajou - Leaf- Rainwing During this workshop, I will take your students step by step through creating a Dragon they will be proud of. We love to draw these fascinating creatures and talk about their uniqueness! Every dragon class is all-inclusive. From building the shape of the dragon to adding the details, depth, shading, and texture! Drawing dragons is a great way for your artist to draw what they love by learning the proper terms and techniques! ~ IMPORTANT~ Be on time for class! This is a step-by-step lesson and you need to be on time. If your artist is late for any reason I will let them in class and they can participate where we are in the drawing. I will offer your artist the option of doing the complete lesson on the recording after class has finished and the lesson has been uploaded to the cloud. Drawing is something you can practice continually and still find room for improvement. If you’re looking to sharpen your skills, there are three areas you can focus on. The first is the construction or building of your subject; making construction sketches lightly on the page is an essential habit that saves time and produces consistency when drawing the same object in different poses. Another area is a simplification, or breaking things down into their most basic elements. Finally, focus on expressing volume and weight through highlights and shadows. Of course, it takes time and hard work to improve your drawing, but following these tips will help get you there! Your artist will build confidence! Art develops problem-solving skills. Art engages the creative mind. Art will allow you to express emotions that may be difficult in other ways (words / social interactions). Art will build confidence in your abilities. Art allows connection with other people. Art develops fine motor skills. Art is FUN!

If they are not, they are to be placed in the waiting room until the parent can make arrangements to register the extra learners or the teacher may refund them. We understand the desire for friends or siblings to watch, but if two children participate under one registration, they will be sent back to the waiting room per Outschool policy. One child per registration. It is acceptable for registered learners to share a screen! * I do not offer refunds or transfers 24 hours before class time. I adhere to the Outschool refund and transfer policy stated here: “Full refund or class-to-class transfer within 24 hours of the class start time.” If you miss the class you are given the opportunity to view the class recording found on the classroom page.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Unleash your inner artist with drawing lessons for young creators!
Do you have a young artist who loves drawing:
Dragons like Toothless from HTTYD or the fierce tribes of Wings of Fire?
The brave cats of Warrior Clans or the wonders of real animals?
Maybe their imagination wants to create something entirely new!
No matter what they love to draw, I'm here to help them learn and grow!
My passion is to inspire young people to:
~Find courage and confidence in their creativity.

~Have fun and enjoy the process of creating.
From basic drawing techniques to exploring different mediums, my interactive classes are designed to:
~Build confidence and self-esteem.
~Spark the imagination and fuel creativity.

~Most importantly, foster a lifelong love for art!
Whether your young artist is a beginner or wants to refine their skills, I have a class for them!
My journey began with sketching as a child and working on graphic designs for T-shirts as a teen. As an adult, I have designed and painted larger-than-life murals and now teach art classes to the public. I currently teach weekly live worldwide art classes online. I get in-person interaction with my local events for those in the Houston, Texas, area!
I reside in Houston, Texas, and I am a homeschooled mom of three. (2 graduated, and one will graduate in 2024). And a proud U.S. Marine Mom! When not putting my latest art onto paper, I can be found "pumping iron" at the gym with my husband of over 27 years. My family is very committed to saving animals, and our house is always full of foster animals from our local animal shelter! Beware, you may see or hear a puppy, kitten, or guinea pig in a live class!
My passion is inspiring young people to find courage and confidence in their creations! Imagination is the doorway to being able to express yourself and be happy!
Motto: Be who you needed when you were younger.
