Who is up for some cool pixel art? This is Set 2 of my Pixel Art series. Sets can be completed in any order! I will teach young artists how to draw the 8-bit Super Mario Bros characters on graph paper, guiding them to create their own drawing by following along. Students will need a variety of colored markers, pencils, or pens, to create their 8-bit characters. I will teach on graph paper, and students should come prepared with their own graph paper, which can be printed for free from the Welcome Message. We will build the art square by square, until the character comes to life! Here's a list of 8-bit characters we will draw: Lesson 1: Boo Lesson 2: Koopa Lesson 3: Lakitu Lesson 4: Toad Lesson 5: Yoshi Students are asked to post their drawings if they are comfortable doing so. I welcome any pictures, videos, or questions as well! Engage and much or as little as you are comfortable.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Fine/Studio Arts from University of Wisconsin - Whitewater
Hello, I'm Ms. Jes!
In my classes, kids unleash their inner artist using favorite characters and games that I’m just as passionate about as they are. We explore spontaneous creativity and embracing “mistakes”. Let’s start drawing outside the box!
I am most passionate about teaching art and learning in unique ways. My approach to teaching infuses encouragement and optimism while having fun and connecting with a new generation over shared interests. Every child is special and celebrated for being who they are! No matter the class, I believe in positively approaching learning and finding joy in it.
• Outside of Outschool, I founded a nonprofit youth performing arts academy in 2015.
• I live in the beautiful Midwest of the USA with my husband and two children.
• If you need financial assistance, please don't hesitate to message me, and I will do my best to offer a reduced rate whenever possible.
