Beginner - Intermediate Level
Animals always bring so much joy to everyone that I teach, young and old, that it's time to make it a point to show them off! This SELF-PACED course is for those who love art and wish to advance their sketching and drawing skills while sharing their love of animals. We will create a new work of art focusing on a different farm animal each week. *Please note that since this is a SELF-PACED course we will not have scheduled live meetings, instead, each learner will be able to work on their...

Week 1Lesson 1🐎Lesson One - HorseDevelop an understanding of how to draw using basic shapes and then changing small lines and details to make it look like the type of horse you want. Think about how a horse's markings make it unique.Week 2Lesson 2🐄Lesson Two - CowThe last time I drew a cow it was based on a picture I was able to take of a calf who poke his nose out toward my camera and it was the most adorable thing ever. We live in an area in which we see many different breeds of cows on our way to town. Work to create a personalized drawing based on the breed of cow you want to draw.Week 3Lesson 3🐔Lesson Three - ChickenWe will create an entire family of chickens this week with the hen, rooster, and brood of chicks. Different characteristics will be developed to show what type of chicken you are drawing. Will yours lay white, brown, or blue eggs?Week 4Lesson 4🐐Lesson Four - GoatThis unique animal is very social and needs a lot of attention and opportunities to play. We'll concentrate on how to create a very 3-Dimensional setting for your goats to live in within your drawing.Week 5Lesson 5🐖Lesson Five - PigThis stout-bodied animal will be a bit different to draw since it doesn't have much of a neck, but it certainly looks different enough from the other farm animals in this series that we will end up with a unique piece of art in the end.Week 6Lesson 6🐑Lesson Six - SheepThe texture of sheep's wool will be a change from drawing fur as we concentrate on creating this soft, fluffy creature.
Students will gain skills in sketching, drawing, adding color, and layering to create dimensional and expressive works of art.
I have been teaching this and similar drawing lessons for 20+ years to a variety of age ranges.
