Class Experience

🌻 Learn to paint this lovely Sunflower painting inspired by Van Gogh! No experience necessary!

Students will work with acrylic on canvas (or thick paper) during this two day camp and will layer onto their paintings each day of the camp. They will learn skills like sketching out their paintings, colour mixing, learning to paint thick brushstrokes like Van Gogh, and more! They will also learn some fun facts about the artist along the way!

Ms. Emily will guide students step-by-step throughout the class and will show a close-up view of her hands while she demonstrates each step. 

Students will be encouraged to ask questions and share their artwork with the other artists in the class. It will be a warm and welcoming environment that will be a good mix of learning and fun!

Here is what students will work on each day:

Day 1: Paint the background.
Day 2: Draw and paint the sunflowers. Add all the finishing touches.

Hope to see you there! 🎨🌻

Hello Outschoolers! 👋

🎨 I am an artist and educator with more than 10 years of teaching experience and I LOVE teaching art! 

👩‍🎓 I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts and have taught a wide range of art classes over the years, including teaching art to individuals on the autism spectrum. 

🦋 My specialities include drawing animals and nature, as well as painting with watercolour. 

🌈✨  I always strive to teach fun and engaging classes while creating an inclusive environment that puts learners at ease. I like to sprinkle educational facts into each art class and allow lots of room for creativity. I don’t believe art should be stressful and strongly believe that having good art experiences can lead to greater self confidence and improved mental health.

👋 Hope to see you soon!
