Class Experience

Let's Draw Pikachu!

This is the first class of my Pokeventures series where we learn how to draw different Pokemon by using shapes! 

For this class, we will focus on our friend Pikachu. Through a series of exercises and a step-by-step guidebook that will walk the students through everything, they need to know to complete their drawing.

Originally designed as a flexible class, I have reformated this class to do a live session, where they can follow along with me to complete their drawing.

This class is for students of all skill levels, as when they are given their guidebooks they can choose to follow along with the beginner, intermediate or advanced version of the Pikachu drawing.

During the live class, I will demonstrate all three and since they will be given the guidebook they can attempt the other levels whenever they want.

At the end of the class, I encourage all students to send me a copy of their drawings so I can provide them with video feedback on their hard work. (Optional) I will even extend this if they choose to complete the other two versions outside of the class.

Supplies needed:
-Pencil
-Paper
-Eraser
-Ruler
-Black Pen/Marker
-Colored Pencils/Markers
-Printed Drawing Grid (if choose to do the Beginner)

Other Classes coming soon:
-Pokeventures (Learn to draw other Pokemon at your own pace!)
-Jurassic Art Slam (Let's Draw Dinosaurs!)
-Wizarding World of Fantastic Creatures (Let's Draw the Fantastic Beasts)

Speciality Classes coming soon:
-Perspective Bootcamp (3rd grade and up)
-Human Anatomy for children
