Let's Paint Cute Watercolour Galaxy Milk Carton
What's included
1 live meeting
45 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
In this one time meeting, we will learn how to draw a see through 3D milk carton and add a watercolor galaxy inside the carton. We will start by sketching out the outlines for the carton in pencil. We will learn about parallel lines and 3D drawing. Next, we will add in watercolour to create our galaxy. It is helpful but not necessary to have a hair blow dryer to dry the watercolour faster during class. After the watercolour is completely dry, we will then add in the details with a black marker and watercolour / coloured pencils. Learners can choose to add shadows with a black marker or coloured pencils. I will be demonstration both the shading and the hatching techniques. Learners are encourage to share often on screen their works in progress to receive individualized feedback and suggestions :) After taking this class, learners are encouraged to try other types of liquid inside their carton. For example, a carton of juice, boba tea, clouds, or stars.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to draw 3D transparent cubes as well as wet-on-wet watercolor technique to create a galaxy effect. We will also look at pen hatching techniques and how to add shadows in our works.

Hi Everyone :) Thanks for checking out my profile!
I have a Bachelors both in Music Performance and Music Education. I also hold a post graduate diploma in Exploring Arts Education.
Currently, I'm the elementary school music teacher, which means I get to teach music to everyone in the school, working with around 430 students per week! I love how I get the privilege to watch so many learners grow as we go through the school year together. I like to incorporate various aspects of arts into my classes, such as painting and dancing, to create a more well rounded experience for my students. My classes are fun and energetic. I always try my best to make personal connections with my students. I feel that students learn best when they feel safe, relaxed and are trusting of the adults in their learning environments.
Aside from teaching in the schools, I am a freelance potter and artist. I specialize in ceramic and fibre arts, such as needle-felting, knitting and crocheting. I also like to paint and doodle my ideas into my sketch books. I sell my works both online and at local craft fairs.
I don't have any pets or children, but I do have 200 house plants that I water every week! My favourite plant is a Monstera named "Freddy". I am a big fan of Studio Ghibli movies and I like spending my free time watching anime and how-to videos.
I look forward to working and exploring the arts with you, here on Outschool :)
