Class Experience

Let's Draw & Paint a Calico Cat sunning himself on a ledge by the window.

We will start off by taking a quick look at my reference image
I will then work step by step with students to break the cat into simple shapes and start drawing
Next we will add a face, ears and a tail
We will sketch in some light guide lines for his fur pattern
A simple window and ledge will be added to complete the drawing
Once our drawing is complete we will paint it in.
I will start with the cat and getting his fur pattern done then we will work on the window, wall and ledge

This is a guided drawing class but students are able to be creative with their own choice of colors and finishing touches.
*Please see Supply List below

Note: Please do not use printer/copy paper...children are disappointed when their work is floppy and doesn't hold up to painting. If you are unable to get a watercolor pad then mixed media would be another choice. A drawing paper pad, though not meant for painting could work as the paper is a little sturdier.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
My teaching style: I am a rather introverted artist who teaches....I am told that I am patient, encouraging, focused, firm. I enjoy/work best with older students. I believe my students should be free to put their own creative touches on their work. I have limited experience with special needs students (ADHD, Autism etc) I hope this is helpful as you read through reviews and decide if your learner will be a good fit.
********************************************
My name is Camille Jacks, originally from Jamaica, I have lived in the US since 1991.  I was awarded a portfolio scholarship to attend The Savannah College of Art and Design where I earned a BFA in Computer Art and Animation and graduated Magna Cum Laude.  
My hands are always busy and I love to teach myself new things.  I draw, paint, knit & crochet (have written patterns for magazines) needle felt, dabble in origami, macramé, weaving and sewing.
I started my teaching journey as a Media Specialist at a private Elementary school in 2004 where my little girl attended.  We moved to Georgia in 2007 and I worked for a company as a mobile computer teacher working with Preschool and Elementary school kids at various schools. The business did not survive so I started working for a company teaching art in the after school programs.
Before Coronavirus I was extremely busy teaching my own adult and kids classes and workshops (oil, watercolor and acrylic) at local county fine arts facilities plus Summer Art Camps. I also taught for a year at a Montessori school and simultaneously started my Outschool journey. 
Once in a while I get to do something cool like be a guest demo artist (needle felting) at The High Museum of Art in Atlanta (July 2018).  When I am not working I am a mom to a young adult daughter. a little bunny and a Diamond Dove.
