Class Experience

Students will be learning how to draw and create cartoon characters.
The first half of the lesson will be spent on learning to draw some classic and modern cartoon, videogame, and movie characters.
The second half of the lesson will be spent teaching students tricks and techniques on how to create their own characters.
When I teach like to use "I do, We do, YOU do" meaning I teach step by step with students following.
My teaching style has always been "LEARNING IS FUN" if I'm having fun, then they are having fun! Art should be a fun class that gets students to express themselves and enjoy themselves.

I want students to interact with each other at the end of my class when we create are own characters I would like to have students do a "Positive Art Critique" where we look at each others art work and talk about them.

Learning Goals

Students will be learning step by step how to draw some of their favorite cartoon, video game, and movie characters. I will also be teaching students tricks and techniques on how to create their own cartoon characters.

Hello ARTISTS!
My Name is Christopher Sweeney, I have been teaching Elementary Art for the past ten years, but when I’m not in the classroom teaching art I’m traveling around the country making art working as a contemporary street artist. I have painted multiple large murals all over the east coast. You might have seen some of my work in galleries, magazines, newspapers, and even featured in the Wynwood ultimate street art coloring book.
I’m here on OUTSCHOOL to teach fun creative art lessons to students of all ages. I will have art lessons that are fun, easy, and most importantly they will be lessons that student’s will be able to use every day art supplies that can be found in most homes. I specialize in Pop-Art, Cartooning, and watercolor painting.
I can’t wait to share my love for art with all of you!
  LET’S GET CREATIVE!
