Description
Class Experience
This class is taught in English.
My mission for all of my classes is that every learner has the opportunity to be creative. I believe creativity is so important, and I want to give students the chance to express themselves in a safe and comfortable environment. The goal is for each student in this particular class to learn about acrylic techniques and brushes to gain the confidence to create their own amazing artwork at home.
I have a BA in Art - Concentration in Drawing and Painting. I have been teaching art at the professional level for the last 8 years. I love to work on painting in my free time, and I illustrate children's books!
As this is a FLEX course students will work on their paintings throughout the week on their own time. Each week's painting should take about an hour, but students are always welcome to spend more time on their painting if they would like.
Learners will need a couple of supplies for painting. If you already have some supplies feel free to use what you have! You WILL need paints, brushes, and something to paint on to complete this class. A set of paints is nice to have but not required. A set with larger tubes is great if you are doing multiple classes. I use white, black, blue, red, yellow, green, brown, pink, and purple paints to complete my artwork. I will be sending out a message in the classroom with specific colors used for each class with the video for the week. On most class days learners will have the option to choose their own colors. A set of brushes is also a great idea to experiment and learn about different brush sizes and shapes! You might already have some at home! I prefer a big brush to fill in the background of my paintings and some smaller brushes for the details. Canvas, Canvas Board, or Canvas Paper Acrylic Paint Set or Paint Colors in - white, black, blue, red, yellow, green, brown, pink, and purple Brush Set - or a couple of different brush sizes Paper Plate (or something to use as a paint pallet) Cup of Water Paper Towels If you would like or need to purchase new supplies, most supplies can be bought easily from Amazon, your local grocery store, or an art store. Please let me know if you have any questions about supplies, I'm happy to help!
No live meetings, and maybe some time outside of class.
Acrylic paints can be hard to get off of furniture and out of clothing. Please make sure students have a space to work that is ok to get a bit messy. I recommend wearing old clothes that you won't mind if they get a little paint on them. Acrylic does come off of hair and skin with just a little soap and water.
