Pokémon is one of the most popular animated shows of all time, with art that stands out among the crowd. In this class, we're going to focus on the art of the Pokémon series, and design our own, unique Pokémon cards with our illustrations! Each class will follow the same loose guidelines, where we will: - Take a look at a Pokémon's design - Discuss what inspired it - Identify what really stands out about it - Pinpoint the Pokémon's type(s) and appropriate moves Then, we'll learn to draw that Pokémon together! After we've mastered the illustration, learners will use the provided Pokémon card template to create a custom card alongside the teacher. The Pokémon we'll be taking a look at fall on the following schedule: Week of January 7: Wobuffet! Week of January 14: Sudowoodo! Week of January 21: Spinda! Week of January 28: Alolan Raichu! Week of February 4: Xatu! Week of February 11: Florges! Week of February 18: Bellibolt! Week of February 25: Psyduck! Week of March 3: Iron Hands! Week of March 10: Snubbull! Week of March 17: Altaria! Week of March 24: Medicham! Week of March 31: Archeops! Of course, learners are more than welcome to suggest their favorite Pokémon, too! #creative

Teacher expertise and credentials
Art is a lifelong passion, and my journey with art started in middle school. I have worked in many different media, but my favorites are sketching, drawing, and photography. I’ve been keeping sketchbooks for nearly 20 years, and they’ve helped me document my journey with art, as well as important milestones in my life. I want to help learners find their artistic passion and help them do the same.Reviews
