Assessment
There is no formal assessment for this course. I will be available and checking in on each student as their work progresses to give positive feedback and suggestions.

Class Experience

Students will be taught the basics of how to use oil pastels. We will practice several techniques before we begin the final artwork. We will look at some photographs of flowers for reference of petal shapes. I will show the students how to draw a flower by guiding them step-by-step. Students are free to customize their art as much as they’d like. Students can ask questions as needed. I will check in on them throughout the class to see their progress. There is no required knowledge or experience for this class!

Learning Goals

Students will try out the following oil pastels techniques: light pressure, hard pressure, blending, mixing, smearing, covering up, and drawing on top. 

Students will use these techniques to draw a large, colorful flower with oil pastels.

Hello, everyone! My name is Jen. My passion is art! I am a certified visual art teacher (for all grades) and a certified multiple subjects teacher (elementary level) and have been teaching art for 15 years. I primarily teach painting and drawing. My favorite thing is to see a student have fun, gain confidence and learn something in my classes! In my classes, I break steps down to make art easy and enjoyable. I also teach ESL classes both online and in person. I love animals and nature. A lot of my own personal art is inspired by nature. I have 3 fabulous kitties at home!
