In this ongoing weekly class, we have fun drawing Pokémon characters. Each week we draw and colour different types of Pokémon. We usually draw a couple of different creatures per session, perhaps working through the evolution of the specific Pokémon. I encourage individual ideas and the sharing of each child's drawing within the class. We usually end up adding other things to the drawings as ideas emerge. We might add a background or shadows. I have a second camera showing my drawing as we progress with our artwork, and that is the camera I will use for the main part of the class. I believe the best way to teach drawing is to engage with what interests the individual. We learn to to draw basic shapes and 'objects' in a space. We develop drawing skills, confidence and an eye for detail. No required experience or knowledge is needed to join this class, only an interest in drawing, and maybe talking about

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a professional artist and art teacher living and working in Sheffield, UK
Born in Denmark I studied Graphic design and illustration before moving to the UK where I received a BA (Hons) Degree in Fine Art, Painting.
With more than four years of teaching experience on Outschool I mainly concentrate on One-on-one classes.
I specialize in mentoring neurodivergent children in classes where the emphasis is on long-term development of drawing skills, concentration, confidence, and communication in a safe and trusting environment.
When meeting a new student, I like to find out what they are interested in and incorporate this in the learning experience, for example if the learner loves Pokemon or similar popular characters, the inspiration from these can provide an excellent variety of skills in creating shapes, textures, and other effects which can be transferred to many other drawing subjects the future. I also like to include discussion of the drawing skills and using discussion to feed the creativity of the learner (e.g. this may lead to bringing in background elements, action, or a backstory to the image).
There is no right or wrong in art, but continued learning and practice of some basic techniques and materials will enhance your ability to make constructive choices in the process of making, and communicate with feeling and true personal style. The foundations will always set you up well for continuing your creative development and advancing your skills. Art is not only a fun pastime, but also a great way for children to build confidence, creativity and increased concentration.
I have extensive knowledge and experience of drawing techniques, illustration, printmaking and art materials. During lessons I will be drawing alongside the learner, using a second camera for easy explaining and demonstrating.Reviews
