Class Experience

Would you rather paint a picture or learn about a famous artist? In this class, you can do both. You will learn a little about Vincent Van Gogh and then use his art to inspire our own acrylic paintings with a winter theme. Each learner should choose their own paint colors. While there will be a demonstration, creativity is encouraged. Get your reactions ready in case a game of Would You Rather breaks out. The learners will learn to create different landscapes using some of the elements common in Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Night. While we are painting, the learners will also learn about creating textures and using lines and shapes to create their works of art. They will also learn about creating landscapes. The class will be structured as follows:
Greetings
Demonstration 
Painting and Socializing
Virtual Art Gallery
I will teach using a demonstration of how to create the landscape we will be working on for each session. While we paint, we will socialize. This may include playing Would You Rather if the members of the class would like to do so. 
My teaching style is relaxed. I like to encourage students to add their own creative touches to their paintings. I like to point out the positive elements of the learner's art to help guide growth. 
The learners will get to interact with me and other learners throughout the lesson. Socialization is encouraged.

Day 1: Starry Night
Day 2: Snow Man
Day 3: Mountain
