Learners will receive individualized, constructive critiques and praise at the end of class.Class Experience
****This class is for ages 9-11. Please look at my profile for this same class for ages 11-16* Ready, set, sketch! Let's learn how to draw one sketch at a time and practice drawing techniques. *All levels are welcome* In this drawing class, we will focus on a different drawing technique or subject in each class. We will cover everything from nature to the human body. We will learn about proportions, anatomy, texture, shading, light and shadow, edges, details, highlights, gesture (expression), and more! Art, just like everything else, takes time and patience to learn. This class will not only teach students valuable drawing techniques, but will also give learners the opportunity to practice applying what they learn. SCHEDULES MONDAYS at 6pm Eastern SATURDAYS at 10am Eastern **Student's Choices** Sat, Oct 15, 2022 - Zenitsu Demon Slayer Sat, Oct 29, 2022 - TBA Sat, Nov 5, 2022 - Nerds Candy Character Sat, Nov 12, 2022 - TBA Sat, Nov 19, 2022 - TBA Sat, Nov 26, 2022 - TBA Because some learners like to suggest topics, topics might change a week before the class! Art is a bit of a mystery, and I want to give learners the tools to be able to figure out how to draw whatever they want. Each class is different and does not build on each other. I am looking forward to seeing you in my class!
Learning Goals
Students will learn different techniques such as proportions, anatomy, texture, shading, light and shadow, and line so that they will be able to use these tools to figure out how to draw independently at home.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I graduated from Grand Central Atelier in New York City where I was trained to draw and paint realistically in a traditional way. While I usually draw realistically, I also enjoy using this approach to draw in different styles. My goal is to teach children the tools of drawing and give them the opportunity to practice applying them so that they will be able to draw what they want independently.Reviews
