Assessment
Creativity is a very personalized process, I encourage my students to take "Progress photos" so that when done, they can look back at how they transformed a black canvas into a painting. These photos are a great visual documentation of their learning. In a year or 5 years, they can look back at their photos and realize how far their skills have come. Thus boosting their morale/ self-esteem to do more creative things.

Class Experience

JUNE & JULY Summer Camp Painting weekly options
 
This Summer ongoing subscription art club allows students to explore easy painting projects in a low-pressure, student-centered environment. Each week students will complete a different painting with step-by-step teacher guidance. Students are encouraged to add their own unique flair to each project through color choices and other project variations.

No previous painting experience is required. This painting club will offer easy painting options that do not require a traceable, or initial drawing. The background will be a great place to practice blending, then the student will learn how to draw the subject with a brush and will practice on a scrap sheet of paper allowing the background to dry.   Then they will complete the final steps on their canvas. 

This weekly class is 55 mins. 

For the painting demonstrations,  Lovejoy will utilize a "screen share" slideshow and pre-recorded video to demonstrate the steps. The slideshow is a file on canva or google drive.  (Students are not directed to any outside sources)
Please upload your final painting photo to this class and inspire others to join the class
