1 hour per week. Using their sketchbook drawings, learners will be able to continue applying the skills learned in class in their drawing time outside of class.Assessment
I will informally assess learner progress by observing their completion of drawings throughout and at the end of each class, while also leaving time for student questions and extra demonstrations. These informal assessments will inform me on where each learner needs more guidance or challenge. Learners are also encouraged to comment photos of their work for more individual feedback.Class Experience

COMING BACK in 2025!! 🌈***$10 OFF YOUR FIRST ART CLASS WITH ME*** use code MNICAART10 at checkout🌈 *this class is for 7-11 year olds* check out my other Realistic Drawing Club for older learners on my profile 🎨This is a safe and supportive space for learners who want to strengthen their realistic drawing skills, create beautiful artworks, and add more impressive works to their sketchbooks. At the start of each class, Teacher Monica will introduce the topic and reference photo which will also be posted in the classroom ahead of time. There will be a short time for students to share their names, a favorite artwork they've created or answer a fun question-of-the-day! After that we'll start with the lesson content where students will follow step-by-step directions by Teacher Monica. Along the way, Teacher Monica will also share simple tips and tricks that you can add to your drawing tool kit. Such as, learning to "draw what you see," observing simple shapes, observing value, and measuring anything with your own pencil! 🎨This club is for beginning artists who have never drawn before, as well as intermediate artists who are looking to step up their art skills and challenge their artistic eye. 🎨So what do we draw? Subjects include hands, portrait drawing, eyes, anything else related to the human figure, life drawing, animals, landscapes and more 🐻 🎨SCHEDULE: ❄️ Winter Block ❄️ Week of Dec 9 - Sea Shells Week of Dec 16 - Hands Study Week of Jan 6 - Realistic Bunny Week of Jan 13 - Golden Retriever Sketch Week of Jan 20 - Mini Tree Pen Sketches Week of Jan 27 - Sea Shells Week of Feb 3 - Realistic Mouse Sketch Week of Feb 10 - Zen Doodle Landscape using a pen Week of Feb 17- Cherries - Shading Study Week of Feb 24 - Happy Kitty Sketch Week of March 10 - Cozy Mini Cabin in the Mountains Sketch Week of March 17 - Realistic Eye Drawing Week of March 24 - Koi Fish Drawing 🌸 Spring Block 🌸 Week of March 31 - Figure Drawing 101 - Gesture Drawings Week of April 7 - Girl on the Moon Drawing Week of April 14 - Manga Style Character Week of April 21 - Nose Study Week of April 28 - Hand Study Week of May 5 - Drawing Shirts on Torso Week of May 12 - Drawing Shoes (foreshortening) Week of May 19 - Figure Drawing Character with a Sword ☀️Summer Block☀️ TBD
