Would you rather draw a picture or play a game? In this class, you can do both. Would you rather paint a picture or play a game? In this class, you can do both. You will learn a little about drawing techniques while we socialize. Get your reactions and questions ready in case a game of Would You Rather breaks out. During this multi-day drawing class, the learners will have the opportunity to learn basic skills in drawing using a pencil. If they would like to add color to their pictures, they are welcome to do so. Creativity is encouraged. The class will use the following structure: Greetings/Introductions Introduction and demonstration of the element or technique for the week Drawing and socialization time Virtual Art Gallery Each week, I will demonstrate one of the elements of art or a drawing technique. The learners will then use the element or technique to create pictures of either their choosing or complete as a directed drawing. Day 1: Types of Line and Sketching Day 2: Using lines and shapes to create pictures Day 3: Using smudging to create a landscape Day 4: Highlights and shading, and creating still life drawings Day 5 Using Pictures to inspire art Day 6: Using gridlines to recreate a picture Day 7: Perspective and how to create one-point Day 8: Two-point perspective and multi-point perspective- the learners will choose one type of perspective to create a picture during this session. The learners will be encouraged to interact with each other throughout the lesson. We may play "Would You Rather" if the learners want to do this. Learners will be encouraged to determine the topics of conversations as we draw.
Learning Goals
The learning goals will include drawing skills and techniques including sketching, creating dimension, using perspective, and using grid lines to re-create a picture.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
The learners will be determining some of the content of the pictures they draw as well as conversational topics.
Supply List
Paper or sketchbook Pencil- soft graphite I use a 4H mechanical pencil Eraser- I use a kneaded eraser Smudging sticks or tissue without lotion For day 5, the learner will need a picture for the lesson. This picture will be used to inspire our drawings during the lesson. For day 6, the learner will need a picture and a ruler. They will be drawing on this picture, so it is better if a printed copy is used rather than an original.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
There will be no outside sources used for this class.
