45 mins in-class hours per weekClass Experience
Students will learn how to draw a different realistic image each week in this fun ongoing, live, online art class. We will draw realistic animals such as elephants and other subjects in this ongoing drawing art class. This is a realistic, abstract, and non-objective drawing class using pencil, charcoal, and pastels. This ongoing drawing class perfect for kids who homeschool or who need a supplemental course in art. I will be demonstrating how to draw different images. We will draw from the google slides shown in class. We will have a subject for the day. We will fit in as many different images(5-10 images) on google slides to draw as possible. We will complete one image at a time. Learners are encouraged to show what they have drawn to the camera so they can get my feedback and encouragement on how to improve. Students can ask questions at any time during class in a fun interactive environment. Students will be given google slides as a pdf to continue working throughout the week on more drawings on their own.

I have an extensive art background in drawing, painting, and clay. I went to a VPA(Visual and Performing Arts School all through middle school and high school). I took art in college but got my BA and MA in Sociology and later earned a teaching degree. I have homeschooled my three daughters and I always included an art class and field trips to the High Museum in ATL, GA. I taught art in an actual elementary school in Massachusetts in the after school programs. I taught art in an actual middle school in Massachusetts in the special needs classroom in the mornings before school.
