1 hour per week. Please trace the reindeer outline before class. You can print the outline uploaded in the classroom, then trace onto your watercolor paper by holding it up to a sunny window.Class Experience
In this class, students will learn to gently paint their own reindeer. Techniques may include testing pigments, wet on dry, wet on wet, ombré, and lifting. The teacher will model these techniques, and the students will get the opportunity to try the technique and explore. With each technique, there are many ways to then alter something small and get a completely different effect in our art. Students will then work to complete their reindeer art, and we will share at the end of class for those who feel comfortable.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome! I've taught in a traditional classroom, in a creative arts school setting, online, and as a home school Mom as needed with our own unique learners. I believe that arts, music, and books add so much to our days, and want to provide classes that support these areas with your learners too! I love learning new arts, and have even learned to paint and play the piano, recently, as an adult. I have been crocheting and sewing for about 30 years, and hope to share my knowledge with other lifelong learners who want to be brave and try new things! I believe enjoying the process is just as important, if not more, than the end product. I model imperfection and share my thought process in how to improve our experiences. I hope to see you soon!
