Class Experience

This class is a study on how to create, shade, and effectively make water droplets that appear 3-dimensional. Students will create at least 3 small studies during class. The element of value will be taught along with it's components of highlights and shadows. 

Students will learn through a guided-demonstration, where they will watch the teacher do a step(s) then complete them on their papers. Class will begin with creating three circles (tracing round objects), marking highlights, and then adding value. 

Students are encouraged to ask questions as they arise. At the end of class, students may share their artwork with the group.

*No prior knowledge/experience is necessary!

Learning Goals

Students will create a range of value from light to dark while erasing highlights and applying extra pressure for shadows.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Hello parents and students!

I love to use a variety of media to keep the creating process fun and exciting. Some of the media we will use are: pencils, markers, crayons, colored pencils, oil and chalk pastels, acrylic paint, watercolors, pen, and more! 

I graduated in 2014 from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a BSED in Art Education and a Dance Minor in Choreography. I have experience teaching every grade level from Pre-K through 12th grade in both Kansas and Texas. Some of the courses I have taught are: Elementary Art, Drawing and Painting, Sculpture and Ceramics, and also Intro to Art. This is my 8th year teaching art in a public school setting. 

Scaffolding the necessary skills for learning art such as problem-solving, collaborating, and self-reflecting are woven intricately into my teaching. When producing my own artwork, I often find inspiration in flowers/nature.

I also have two large Newfoundland dogs (Bruin & Orso) and love to take them for walks when I am not busy teaching. You might even see them say "Hello!" during a class or two! I look forward to seeing you in my classroom! 

"Creativity takes courage." -Henri Matisse.
