Using my guided drawing process, students will use simple lines, shapes and patterns to create their own stunning cardinals. This is the fourth class in my bird series, after the hummingbird class. We will examine the shapes and colors of cardinals, practice those shapes, and draw a cardinal, finishing it up with black Sharpies, colored pencils, and if the student chooses for the background, watercolor paint. Background knowledge of lines, shapes and patterns, and how they are used to create a work of art are helpful, but not necessary. An hour of drawing/coloring on their own time might be needed for students who work more slowly, but not necessary.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to draw and paint shapes and textures to create an image of a cardinal in a tree in winter.

As a veteran art teacher, I have developed techniques for breaking down drawing lessons into simple, easy-to-follow steps. Once we get the basics done, I give my students freedom to complete their project using their own imagination, thereby giving them the opportunity to take what I have taught them to a different, fun and creative level.

Hello! I am a K-12 licensed art teacher. and professional artist. I teach all kinds of art, including drawing, painting, pottery, fibers, sculpture, art history and culture, and frequently integrate math, literacy and other subjects with my art lessons! I received my Bachelors of Fine Art and teaching credentials from Metropolitan State College of Denver and my M.Ed. from the University of Colorado-Boulder. I have actually taught all ages, from 5 to adult! It is my passion to give students a safe and supportive place to develop their skills and a sense of accomplishment through the creative process. My teaching style is relaxed and nurturing, but sometimes I can't help but get really excited when I see a student make a connection or just simply feel successful! I also love to incorporate other content areas in my art classes whenever appropriate. Many of my lessons for younger kids are inspired by children's books. Projects for older kids might include history or culture. I also love to teach about famous artists of the past and present and bring their styles and processes into my art lessons.
Though art education has always been a space for nurturing students' social-emotional well-being. I recently completed my SEL certification, and am adding more art classes with a SEL focus to my catalog.
As a professional artist, I have participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions, sold my paintings and wares, and have been commissioned to do numerous murals in private homes as well as public spaces. My most well-known of which is the background on 3 walls of the tide pool exhibit in the Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster, CO. Most recently, my painting of giant sunflowers was reproduced on a traffic box on a street corner in Thornton, CO. I also make and sell art of all kinds, locally on a smaller scale. In addition to loving art, my husband and I love animals and currently share our home with a dog, two cats, and various birds and squirrels that visit our back yard every day. We love to travel, in particular to the gorgeous Rocky Mountains in our beautiful state of Colorado.
