Class Experience

In this flexible schedule course, students will have a chance to learn Pointilism, the art of drawing in just dots! Best of all, students can take their time and not rush, perfect for this style of drawing. 
Here is a breakdown of each week's lesson:
Week One - Getting to know our pens/ matching values in dots 
Week Two - Creating simple shapes and objects
Week Three - Creating a full image (small)
Week Four - Creating a full image (medium)
Weeks Five and Six - Final Piece 

Students will recieve a recorded lesson and handouts for each week. There are no live meetings in flexible schedule classes, though live office hours are available upon request.  Students will share their work, and post comments and videos in the class feed, and have an opportunity for questions and feedback. I post lessons and video recordings on Mondays. Additionally, there is a post made on Wednesdays, related to the subject, to get students engaged and interacting with their fellow artists. An example would be finding specific types of artworks or videos and discussing them. Students are welcome to comment as often as they like in the class feed. Upon completion, students will recieve a certificate as well!

Come learn pointilism with me! :)
