Welcome to Mrs. D's Art Room where it is always a good day when you are learning something new. Kids always want to add some fun stuff to their drawings, but they don't realize what they can learn through that. So, I specially design these projects to have some fun while learning. They will learn new things with each project! April 14th: Collage Crab - Collage Painting (recycling art) while learning step by step crab drawing We will draw a step-by-step crab drawing mostly using basic shapes and use small, ripped magazine paper to make a beautiful collage painting of a crab. April 15th: Feathery Fish - Using feathers to add texture and dimension We will draw a cute fish using simple easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions and color it with crayons by using the line coloring technique and sticking colorful feathers to show the feathery tail and fins. April 16th: Googly Eye Octopus - a fun way of using Q-tips for coloring and steps to draw an octopus We will draw our cartoon-style octopus by using step-by-step instruction and color it using acrylic paints and Q-tips to make a dot design on his body. Finally, we'll stick googly eyes and draw a smile to make the drawing super cute. April 17th: Smiling Shark - We will use color pencils or crayons for mixing and shading colors and drawing a shark using easy-to-follow steps. We will draw the kids' all-time favorite shark, which is not scary but saying cheese with his sharp teeth. April 18th: Playing Dolphin - We will learn a jumping dolphin, a water splash, and how to paint clouds with acrylic paints. In this project, we will learn to draw a dolphin playing with a ball by using easy steps. We will use acrylic paints to paint water splash and white clouds. We will talk all about sea creatures, learn fun facts, ask questions, and be creative with the drawing. I can't wait to see your child in my class! Students will be encouraged to socialize and share their artwork although it is not required. Students will also be encouraged to make their artwork unique and complete their art independently if they are not finished in class. I pace our class based on the students' abilities, so we will go slower or faster depending on how everyone is doing. No experience is needed for this class; learners will follow directions. If you enjoy this class, please don't forget to check out my other one time classes: Rainbow Pop It Teddy Bear Mirabel Wall Hanging -Dot Mandala Art. Soft and Furry Easter Bunny- Time for Spring Art Specially designed to improve hand and eye coordination, concentration, and to learn some new art techniques. Hope to see you soon!
Learning Goals
Kids will learn to think out of the box to color their drawings, learn to recycle material and use it in their art, and how to add a background for their drawing. They will also develop skills on how to use different mediums to color their art.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello and Welcome Outschoolars! I’m Mrs.D. ! I appreciate you considering me to be a part of your young artist's art journey!
I teach various art classes that involve color theories, color wheels, and color schemes that work together to create human figures, landscaping, and canvas painting with easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. I love to teach different styles and techniques of art using Art Theory.
I am an artist by profession. I have a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts. I have participated in many art exhibitions in my public art center and library and taught art, crafts, and card making in elementary schools and Girl Scouts as a volunteer. I love to share art with my community.
I have been teaching 1:1 art classes online and in person for the last 5 years to ages 4 to 14 years. I have instructed children online all around the world, and continue to teach local classes and workshops in my community. I am so happy to continue what I am doing on a bigger and better platform from the comfort of my home.
I like to teach Art Theory in most of my projects so kids will learn multiple things without even realizing it. I believe all students can learn, and art is the best way to express yourself and your feelings in your unique way.
Art helps to improve hand and eye coordination. It also helps to grow your concentration and patience. Sometimes young minds can't express themselves through talking, but through drawing. I love connecting with students through art and helping them grow, laugh, and have some fun!
Class Expectation: Everyone works at different speeds. If the child is not finished with the piece by the end of class, they can finish the remaining picture at home and post it in the classroom.
Join me on this incredible adventure to take your child’s passion to the next level.
Thank you for visiting my profile! I’m looking forward to being a part of your child's art journey, growth, and success; can’t wait to see you in class!
