1 hour per week. Homework is not given; however, due to the nature of Art some students may wish to work on their projects outside of the 45 minute weekly class time given.Class Experience
Each week we will meet to chat and create art together. An artist will be featured each week for us to gain inspiration from and incorporate that artist's style into our own creative projects. You may use the artists work as a source of inspiration and incorporate it into a project of your own design or you may practice technique by copying one of our featured artists work. The choice is yours. Each session runs for 4 weeks. Students are encouraged to share their favorite artists works with peers and share outside projects they are working on with the group. This is a friendly group of peers interested in learning from each other and with each other. A multi page hand out will be provided on the first day of class that includes an overview of all of our projects for the month.
Learning Goals
Social skills will be practiced during our group. We will have many opportunities to engage in conversation, learn about artists and discuss our process for creating art. We will also engage in painting, drawing and art techniques.

Master's Degree in Education from Antioch New England
Bachelor's Degree in Fine/Studio Arts from Madonna University
Hi. My name is Heather. The best students ask lots of questions and explore their ideas openly. My job is to inspire the questions and give students the tools they need to find their own answers. I earned my BFA from Madonna University in Michigan and my MEd. from Antioch New England in New Hampshire. I am a Nature Based Educator and Art Education Consultant with 25 years of experience working with children. Whether leading a hiking group, sketching, searching for mermaid tears, or giving a demonstration at Strawbery Banke Museum I infuse my days with imagination and curiosity. I am also the Head Youth Librarian at the Newmarket Public Library in New Hampshire!
My heart is in everything I do. Creativity is at the core of all of the classes I teach. Nature Journaling, Gardening, Nature Architects, Myth, Magic and Folklore, The Art of Letter Writing (via Owl post of course!), Morning Circle for Littles, Fine Art classes focusing on famous and not so famous artists, Forest Fairy Club, Wizard's Potions and Magic Wands, and Spelling Bees are just a few of the classes I offer. Ages range from 3 to 18.
