Intermediate Level
Do you love drawing animals? If you're a big fan of animals and you love drawing them then we’ve got the class for you! This is a pre-recorded class and there are no live meetings. The class is project-based learning where students will follow along and learn by watching pre-recorded video lessons. Students will post or send their artwork in the classroom and the teacher will give personalized feedback through a video recording or written feedback. Students can post encouraging comments on their classmates' work. In this class, students will learn to draw and color animals with plenty of feedback and encouragement from the instructor. The instructor will demonstrate and explain the drawing process in the Megapixels method through pre-recorded videos as students follow along step-by-step, creating their own magnificent artwork. Students can copy the instructor’s picture or can add their own creative embellishments and colors. This class is geared toward beginners and intermediate/advanced students are welcome as well. The main goals are that students have fun while creating art they can feel proud to display! Students can share their art inside the classroom for encouraging feedback. Feedback may come in the form of written feedback and/or personalized videos from the art teacher who is assigned to our class. (See teacher descriptions below). Here are some of the possible animals that we'll be drawing! Lesson 1: Snake Lesson 2: Butterfly on a Cat/Dog Nose Lesson 3: Dolphin Part 1 Lesson 4: Dolphin Part 2
Learning Goals
Students will learn creative drawing techniques. They will also learn how to create depth in their art to make it pop. They will learn how to select colors that compliment each other and how to add their own creative flair to their art. The end result will be cool drawings of dinosaurs they will feel proud to display.

Each instructor at Megapixels School of the Arts is a master of their craft and is certified to teach the Megapixels Method. This method of instruction trains students to be able to draw realistically while having the freedom to go wild with creativity and the mindset to succeed.
We go beyond teaching art: our mission is to equip children with mindsets that will help them succeed in all areas of life. Patience, persistence, peacefulness. Character, confidence, and creativity- cultivating these qualities in your child through a fun art experience is our passion.
We are on a mission to empower kids to become lifelong learners, who are confident in their creativity so they can overcome any obstacle, achieve their biggest dreams, and change the world.
We encourage students to not get caught up in perfectionism but rather to enjoy the process, which further unleashes artistic prowess.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Becca was amazing. My son learned a great way to measure proportions and closely render what the photo references were. That's the hardest part for kids. Thank you Becca. - Ed C.
