Students will receive individual feedback and suggestions on their art.Class Experience
This course is a full introduction to drawing techniques that would be both fun and useful for all who love drawing. It is a good fit for beginners as well as more experienced artists. We will be using different approaches and new techniques each class and students will have a chance to create artwork in different genres, such as realistic and fantasy landscape, still life drawing, animal drawing, botanical drawing, human portrait and figure and many more. The course will be perfect for young artists who like to try new things and explore different drawing techniques, for those who want to learn how to make their art look more realistic and 3-dimensional, and for those who want to know how to add a personal vision and creative touch to their drawing. We will begin each lesson by sharing our recent artwork and discussing some drawing ideas. We will then move on to working on an art project. Each week we will have a different theme or technique to explore. Sometimes the theme of the class will be chosen by the teacher, but students will also have a chance to request a specific theme or style to explore. The theme of the class will be announced one week prior in the classroom section. Students will be offered to share their final drawing at the end of the class and receive a feedback from the teacher. As a teacher, I always aim to make my art classes both fun and informative. My goal is not to have the students just draw along, but for them to understand what they are doing and why, so that they can use this knowledge and experience in their own art. We will mostly be working with drawing graphite pencils and colored pencils. Here are some of the themes we cover in our classes: March 2025 Week of the 27th Drawing Hands April 2025 Week of the 1st Drawing Hair Week of the 7th Combining anime and Japanese traditional art/Anime Side View Portrait Week of the 14th Realistic Animal Portrait Week of the 21th Stylized Animal Portrait Week of the 28th Animal Eyes May 2025 Week of the 3nd Mythical Creatures Week of the 10th Architecture Drawing Week of the 17th No Classes Week of the 24th Landscape Drawing No specific experience is required to join the course, anyone who loves drawing is welcome to join!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Linguistics from Nanjing Pedagogical University
Hello! My name is Karina, I am a professional educator, artist and linguist. At this point, I have over 12 years of experience teaching students of all ages, both in-person and on-line.
I'm also proud to be one of the top art teachers on Outschool with over 7000 learners taking my classes since July 2020.
I was born in Ukraine in a family of teachers and I always wanted to become a teacher myself, gratefully my dream came true! I started as a private language tutor back in 2011, and since then I have been traveling around the world and teaching language classes. I'm a TESOL certified instructor with a BA degree in Linguistics. For five years I worked as a full-time English and Russian language instructor for language schools in China and Japan and it was an amazing journey of discovering new languages, meeting amazing people and learning how to approach students with different sets of skills and backgrounds.
After living and working in Asia for over five years I came to Canada, where I continue to teach private and group classes, both in-person and on-line.
Other than studying linguistics, I received multiple certifications from School of Fine Arts in Moscow and have been working as a professional artist since 2015. My artwork has been exhibited and sold all around the globe, my paintings won multiple awards. In the past few years, I managed to successfully combine my passion for visual arts with my love for working with children to create unique, fun and educational art courses. I specialize in Realistic Drawing, Creative Drawing, Anime Drawing and Watercolour painting.
The most important thing for me as a teacher is to make my students feel supported and valued. Each child has an awesome potential and discovering it together with my students is the greatest gift for me as a teacher.
I’m looking forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with my students.
Thank you!
See you in the classroom!Reviews
