Class Experience

Beginner Level
Each week learners in this beginner's art class will create artwork Masterpieces! In this self-paced pre-recorded class, every painting will be inspired by animals and nature. The perfect introduction to art and creativity. Ideal for elementary students. 

One week we draw & paint a buzzing bee in a lavendar field and another week we draw & paint a tiny furry baby raccoon kit. Every week will be a new masterpiece and a new adventure around the world! This class is perfect for parents and learners with busy schedules as it's very flexible! 

We learn about nature, as well as Zoology and a touch of geography, whilst we draw and paint. We will also learn painting and drawing techniques (such as watercolor), whilst we build skills and confidence! Our mission is to learn, create, and have fun whilst we use our imagination! 

This club is perfect for learners who love art, nature and animals. It is ideal for building practical art and drawing skills, as well as artistic confidence. The Explorer's Art Club will allow learners to fine-tune their observational skills. It is also great for listening and comprehension skills.

I will be giving simplified step by step instructions for each week’s subject.  I use a teaching technique called directed drawing. I simplify the drawings down into simple lines and shapes and show how to draw each step of the way. Students will also be encouraged to be creative and add their unique touch and style to paintings!

I look forward to supporting each learner in their own individual artistic and learning journey. Every child is an artist and every child is talented. My goal is to foster this uniqueness and help build learner's self-confidence.  

The subject and supply list will be posted in advance each week. However, the basic supplies to have on hand are listed in the supplies section below. We often use acrylic paint or watercolors. Although I recommend art supplies for each class, learners are welcome to use whatever art supplies they prefer or have on hand. Please feel free to message me directly with any questions.

Hope your artistic explorers enjoy the class!

Learning Goals

Students will learn educational facts about many of the amazing animals living in different countries of the world with a touch of geography and science.

I have advanced training in fine arts drawing and painting. I have also taught drawing and painting to University Students and have been a homeschool teacher for a small group of preschoolers. In my classroom children create their own masterpieces whilst they learn about an interesting and educational subject. I am passionate about teaching children through Art History and the Arts. Children can learn so much about our world through these subjects. History, Culture, and Geography are just three subjects that are incredibly interwoven within Art History and the Arts. Learning from this perspective makes learning fun and engaging. I love seeing children grow and encouraging them on their learning journey. My goal is to make every child feel special and that they can achieve anything to which they put their minds.
