Class Experience

In this one-time private art lesson, I will work with the learner exploring their choice of a topic in drawing or painting.  We will do some experimenting and lots of practice.  Drawing and painting will be the focus of our explorations.  I share ideas for practice at the end of our session, and links to learn more in our classroom.  Enrichment and extension of learning links connect the day's skills and practice to the larger art world.

Possible topics include:
*Perspective Drawing
*Kawaii Drawing (cute drawing)
*Using Drawing Pencils: Creating Light and Dark Values with Graphite Pencils
*Drawing with Color Pencil
*Watercolor Painting: Exploring the Basics
*Watercolor Painting: Advanced Techniques
*Acrylic Painting: The Basics
*Acrylic Painting: Exploring Color

What to Expect in Class:  This class begins with greetings, and discussing what the student wants to learn.  During class, I use two cameras.  The second camera is above my workspace so my hands and drawings are clearly visible.  As we work together, I offer feedback and tips.  Our private art lesson wraps up with share time.  I share ideas to extend learning through practice before we say goodbye.

My Teaching Style:  I am a compassionate teacher and I respect student artists’ varying skill levels and communication preferences.  Learners may choose to engage in discussions, respond using chat, and/or share their artworks. Learners are encouraged to communicate in a way that is best for them.  Art is all about individual expression!
