Let's Draw Animals Club!

Rather than trace a famous film or game animal, let's draw them based on real life animal photos. We'll study a new animal each class, then customize their colours! This is a great way to improve our drawing skills and meet new friends!

Class Details:
The class is composed of a PowerPoint...

The goal here is to teach the students about drawing and build their confidence at a young age to embrace various characters they love and be proud of themselves at what they created. The goal here is CONFIDENCE, not perfection.

A secondary goal is to excite young learners about animals, learning amazing things about animals in the real world!

There’s nothing sensitive about my classes. 

Experience-wise, I have been illustrating for years, and have studied Product Design and Interaction Design. I worked as a Digital Designer for the past five years and have had my digital illustrations in various websites/apps. If you want to see some of my digital portfolio, please review my website at MichaelRobson.ca.

As you can see we've added homework throughout the class! If your son or daughter is interested, they should share their stories with the class, as well as their hilarious mad libs games! ^^  I would love to mark/correct their writing if you are interested!

Learners should bring drawing materials:

Pencil, Eraser, Pencil Sharpener (optional)
Black Pen
Pencil Crayons or Pastels
One dice, used to roll and generate magic powers for the animal

They must also print out my handout document (one page, two sides) in black/white or color (I'll be updating it every few days to add the newest animal file)!

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
