Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 5
Embark on an out-of-this-world adventure in this class! Designed for young artists, this interactive class combines the fun of space exploration with the creativity of acrylic painting. Over four sessions, your artist will learn a variety of painting techniques while creating four unique space-themed masterpieces.

Each session ia packed with opportunities for creativity, allowing the artist to add their own imaginative touches to their paintings. As they paint, we'll dive into fascinating space facts and engage in lively discussions with space-themed "Would You Rather" questions, jokes, and riddles. This class not only fosters artistic skills but alos encourages socialization and a love for learning about the cosmos.

The class will use the following structure: 
Greetings
Demonstration and Painting
Socialization will occur during painting
Virtual Art Gallery

I will teach using a step-by-step demonstration, while encouraging the artists to add their own personal touches to their masterpieces. 

My teaching style is centered around positive reinforcement and creating a supportive, nurturing environment where every learner feels valued and confident in their abilities. I believe that learning should be a joyful experience, and I strive to foster an atmosphere where artists are encouraged to explore their creativity, take risks, and express themselves without fear of judgement. By celebrating each artist's unique strenghts and providing gently guidance, I help them build self-esteem, develop their skills, and discover a joy of learning. My goal is to inspire a lifelong love of learning and creativity.

The class environment will be nurturing and supportive.
