In this class students will learn how to draw and compose a still life setting. The class will begin with an introduction of myself and fellow students and inquire the artistic goals of each student. We will draw objects using highlight, mid-tone, core shadow, reflected light, proportion, and various other techniques. It is not guaranteed that students will complete the still life since every artist works at their own pace but they will have the ability to complete the image beyond the classroom. I am a hands on instructor and encourage discussion so that all students gain the necessary knowledge to pursue their artistic endeavors beyond the classroom. It is highly recommended to take my “Introduction to Drawing and Skill Development” course before this class to ensure a better quality drawing.
Learning Goals
Students will develop their drawing skills pertaining to texture and lighting. They will have a better understanding of value, shapes, and composing finished ideas.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello to all! My name is Paulina Reynoso, and I am a devoted artist. I have taught multiple students from grades K -12 in privatized lessons, and I have led open discussions at my previous college. I was the Vice President of the student body and the student representative for the art department where I contributed in efforts towards commissioning art on campus.
I have been a proud nanny for years and I am excited to combine my knowledge of the arts with my knowledge of childcare and development onto this platform. I believe that everyone has the capability to be the artist they aspire to be, and I will be the instructor that develops those dreams towards reality. There are no limitations or lack of materials that will hinder the knowledge I provide. The concepts and practicality of my courses will guide your child throughout their future artistic endeavors.
The classes I teach offer instruction for different skill levels and age groups to ensure that everybody has access to the class that best suites them. I hold one-time-classes, weekly classes, and semester-long classes to fit all busy schedules. I incorporate art history with multiple references into all my classes to add context to the style and development of certain practices. The classes I teach will include, but are not limited to:
Beginner - Intermediate Still Life Drawing, Beginner-Intermediate Drawing, Beginner-Intermediate Colored Pencil Drawing, Beginner-Intermediate Acrylic Painting, Beginner-Intermediate Oil Painting, Beginner-Intermediate Charcoal Drawing, Beginner-Intermediate Figure Drawing, Introduction to Pro-Create, Introduction to Adobe Photoshop and many more.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me and I hope to meet you all soon. Please feel free to message me for any inquiries or suggestions you may have.
