Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
Beginner - Advanced Level
In this ongoing class, students will be learning to draw an adorable animal, beautiful landscape or still life scene and use acrylic painting techniques to paint it. We will break down animals into simple shapes and then refine our drawing. Acrylic painting techniques such as mixing colors on the palette and canvas, gradients, impasto, and glazing will be taught as needed for the specific project.

Lessons will be in a "work with me format" with visual and audio step-by-step instructions. I will show my finished work at the start of class as an example along with the supplies needed to create it. Art freedom and fun will be emphasized in a relaxed setting. Students will be encouraged to add their creative personal touches to their work. I will offer a sharing event at the end of the class and/or I will encourage students to upload their finished work to the classroom after it dries to share with me and their art friends. There's no pressure to share artwork but we love to see your paintings!
