Description
Class Experience
This class is set up as an on going class, it is a weekly drop in course. Each lesson stands alone and is not progressive. Subscriptions to this class can start or stop at any time. Each class students will be provided with an art activity which will take approximately 25 minutes to complete. We often sketch from our inspiration source and using this, create our own art work. We will then use this to inspire a short creative writing assignment also approximately 25 minutes. Students...
Students will learn to draw a specific topic each class. We will discover pencil and pen sketching, pen and ink, water color, perspective and illustration styles. We will use our art work to influence creative writing. Students will learn creative words and their definitions in each class. They will learn to describe their art work and build confidence to read aloud their own writing. Students will be encouraged to give positive comments about the work of others.
As our class time is limited students may wish to return to their art work or their written work after class and add more details.
Students are encouraged to have the following items available for each class. I encourage students to use a spiral bound sketchbook with quality mixed media or water color paper. Students may choose to draw on one side of the double page spread and write on the other. If this paper is not suitable for watercolor paint you may opt for a second book with specific water color paper. Students may prefer lined paper to write on. This can be kept in a separate book or glued into the sketchbook next to the art work. All you require is something to draw and write with and some colors (markers, pencils or paints).
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
No formal assessment will be given in this class.
1 hour per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
