Ongoing Weekly Hand Lettering + Drawing Class- Modern Faux Calligraphy Art Class
What's included
1 live meeting
1 in-class hours per weekClass Experience
In this on-going, weekly class, we will create a new art piece using modern hand lettering and drawing techniques. We'll learn new methods and practice creating new elements, flourishes, borders, dimension, and shadows. If you've taken any of my other classes, this will follow the same style and class flow by completing a project each week. This class is great for students who are new to hand-lettering, or have some experience! I cover the basics in each class for all new students, and allow experienced students freedom to go on at their preferred pace. In my classes, students are always encouraged to make their own creative adjustments and try new things. As long as they are happy with their artwork, that's the goal! Class Offerings: Week of August 5th: "Explore More" lettering drawn with a polaroid camera, hanging photos, and lots of colors! Week of August 12th: "Let The Good Times Roll" using two different types of lettering, a mountainous skyline scene and a VW bus, with cactus. Week of August 19th: "Back to School" Lettering on a blackboard with school-themed embellishments, and shading techniques. **** New topics will be introduced in upcoming weeks for further dates. Please note, this is a weekly on-going class. If subscribed, you will be charged weekly for each class. You can unsubscribe at anytime.**** We have made it through 2 years of this class! We create new weekly drawings every week. Now I’m offering some weeknight classes for students. If you would like to know what we’re drawing for a coming week, please message me so I can send you a picture. Card stock is preferred (but not required) for this class as we’re aiming to create a sturdy wall-art piece. Students can also choose color options they prefer most. Students will be guided step-by-step and given creative liberty to change and adapt their compositions as we draw together. ***Please note, some students may not have time to finish coloring their piece in class depending on their optimal drawing speed. I will work at a steady pace and frequently gage where students are at during the lesson. It is my goal to help them finish their drawing, but sometimes this doesn’t allow for coloring completion before class is over. Thank you for understanding.***

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Science from Univeristy of Phoenix
I am a former Art Teacher and had the privilege of teaching Art for 2 years to K-8th grade students using various mediums and forms. A lot of my class instruction was teaching the art of drawing. Weekly, we drew various compositions ranging from seasonal landscapes, wild animals, nature, and portraits. Students enjoyed learning skills to create realistic drawings while adding as much flare and creative variation as they liked. Watching students enjoy making art and grow in their own confidence was truly a priceless gift. In addition to teaching art, I am an artist and have an art studio in my home. I've used my love for hand-lettering and design to start a business in 2015 selling products with my work. It's been so fun!
