Ongoing Art Club: Aardvarks to Zebras and Everything in-Between

If you don't see a suitable time/day to enroll then please contact me and I'll see if I can arrrange another day/time.

In this ongoing class we will be drawing and sometimes watercolour painting in a relaxed informal setting (students are welcome to chat to each other). Along the way students will get some idea of perspective, shading, form, composition and lighting and maybe make some new friends :). 

The theme will be changeable based on animals, cartoons, computer games, films and books. Sometimes I will suggest ideas we can do but also students can say what they would like to draw/learn or other times the subject might be influenced by the season (Christmas, halloween etc). Students will be able to see me at all times and for the drawing I will be using a graphic tablet which allows me to show the drawing process clearly. 

I believe that it's drawing as much as you can (practice long enough at anything and you'll get good at it) that helps improve your skills and hopefully the art club helps with that process.  All that is needed is some enthusiasm and the willingness not to give up. 

What we draw from week to week will be partly based on what the students decide and my choice based on what I think might be suitable. Some times it could be drawing a cartoon character or animals, another week the season might dictate what we do (drawing  a snow scene at Christmas for example)  and another it might be doing a watercolour landscape. Most weeks only a pencil, eraser, ruler and coloured pencils will be required. Students will be notified in advance if watercolours and watercolour paper is required. It will be very varied and hopefully interesting for the students.
