Class Experience

Explore drawing using simple shapes, adding shading to make drawings more realistic, drawing using perspective, and using the elements of art to make drawings exceptional.
The session will start with a short conversation to establish the learners’ confidence level and what they want to achieve. I encourage your learners to share a drawing that they have previously created if they feel comfortable! I will demonstrate a technique related to what they wish to achieve. I will guide them and provide encouraging, constructive feedback as they draw! 
As we wrap up our time, I will suggest and encourage other drawing activities for further independent practice and/or another private lesson.


Session Themes Can Include:
Week of May 20th- Theme 1: Drawing animals with the Elements of Art: Lines, Shapes, and Texture
Week of May 27th- Theme 2: Drawing nature with the Elements of Art: Form, Value, and Space 
Week of June 3rd- Theme 3: Drawing hands!
Week of June 10th-Theme 4: Drawing faces!
Week of June 17th- Theme 5: Drawing using one-point perspective!

Learning Goals

Every session will look different due to the individual learner's needs. I aim for your learner to leave this class having had a boost in confidence in their drawing skills and more techniques and drawing exercises in their drawing toolkit.
