This creative inspired drawing and acrylic painting class is a well-structured curriculum that covers various art techniques and styles suitable for children aged 7 to 11. 
 I am an experienced instructor with a background in teaching art to all ages. This class encourages learners to explore their creative freedom while emphasizing artistic values and principles. I aim to create a nurturing environment where children can explore their artistic talents and develop their creativity in a supportive and safe setting. No experience is needed.

Our 60-minute art class is thoughtfully designed to engage and inspire young artists aged 7 to 12. Here's a breakdown of how each session will be organized and run:

Warm-Up (5 minutes): 
The class begins with a brief warm-up activity to get the creative juices flowing. This might involve a short discussion about art, a quick sketching exercise, or a fun creative prompt.

Main Lesson (30 minutes): 
The core of the class is dedicated to the main art lesson. I will introduce a specific art technique, style, or project for the day. Learners will receive step-by-step guidance, demonstrations, and hands-on assistance as needed to help them grasp the concepts.

Artistic Exploration (15 minutes): Following the main lesson, children will have the opportunity to apply what they've learned. They'll work on their individual art projects, allowing for artistic freedom and self-expression. Providing guidance and support tailored to each child's skill level and needs.

Discussion (5 minutes): 
It's essential to instill good habits, so we dedicate a few minutes to clean up. This is also an excellent time for a brief group discussion, where students can share their experiences, ask questions, or express their thoughts about the lesson.

Show and Tell (5 minutes): 
To encourage self-confidence and art appreciation, each class may conclude with a brief "show and tell" session. Learners can choose to showcase their artwork, and the group can offer positive feedback and appreciation.

Parents can expect a well-structured and engaging art class that nurtures their learner's creativity and artistic growth within the 55-minute timeframe.

I am Miss Ally, and I grew up near Boston, Massachusetts. I was very lucky to grow up with art and creativity all around me, now I am able to share my passion of the arts with you!
