Students will create two paintings of mystical creatures on canvas. Creatures may vary. Learn drawing concepts through use of basic shapes. Learn how to modify their project based on available materials and skill. Complete a fun and engaging project for home decor or gift giving. In the first hour of class, I will discuss materials and basic drawing concepts. The last hour will be working with acrylic paint and making adjustments along the way to accommodate the learners' current abilities. This will be done in a relaxed student-led atmosphere. Active discussion will be throughout the process. No previous experience is necessary, just a positive attitude.

Teacher expertise and credentials
As an educator with over 25 years of experience, I love my students to explore their own self-discovery through my instruction. I think of myself as a "Guide on the Side." I currently teach third grade with a strong emphasis on small group instruction, utilizing the best practices in reading and math while integrating technologies to enhance rather than lead instruction. I have a background in K-12 music instruction with piano being my primary instrument. I spent many years teaching recorder which is a pre-band instrument, general classroom music, and drama. In my spare time I love working with mixed-media art which means "Anything goes." I love painting, drawing, art journaling, scrapbooking, card making, and jewelry and love sharing creative techniques with my students to guide them on their artistic journey. I have certifications in Copic illustration markers and have spent many years as a paper-crafting artist.
