Homework
1-2 hours per week. Art projects on a weekly basis. Each week I'll upload 1 video step-by-step tutorial on how to paint a watercolor landscape. By the end of the week, the student should have this painting done, and be able to submit an image or video of their project to me.Class Experience
Welcome to Watercolor Landscapes by the Painting Panda! FLEX CLASS VERSION Watercolor is one of the most fun and versatile mediums in art right now, in fact it has been for hundreds of years. Artists from all over the world, from every decade have taken to watercolor painting of landscapes, marshes, seascapes, still lives, citty-scapes and so much more. With so much for us all to enjoy, see and behold its no wonder this is such a popular genre to paint! Each week we will learn to paint a specified landscape, as well as learn about different ways famous Artists have painted the same type of landscape. This means we'll learn a few techniques, learn about a few artists and their inspiration, and get to paint complete works of art to frame (if you so choose) at the end of the week. Sharing your learner's work will make this class more interactive, so I can give help, tips and tricks, assessments, and comments. I will post my instruction videos, my step-by-step videos by week each Monday no LATER than 5pm EST. If you are having challenges, and things aren't working with your projects and lessons please contact me ASAP, so I can provide further help. Student's are encouraged to jump into the classroom and start introducing themselves to each other, asking questions, and discuss interests in the classroom. On Wednesdays I'll check into class to see how everyone is doing, answer any questions posted into the classroom that haven't been answered over the weekend, encourage students to interact with each other through various interactive games/ video clips/ and tips that I post in the classroom. On Fridays is Art work submission day for show and tell from the students. I'll check into class to see reminding learners to upload an image or video of their finished projects. Once art work is submitted to the classroom students are encouraged to leave positive comments on their classmate's work, ask each other questions, and have discussions in the classroom. I will also leave my own comments in the classroom for the show and tell. Week 1: Ocean Scene Week 2: Spring Walkway Week 3: Misty marsh Week 4: Winter water scene If students need more time, please contact me so we can put a plan together. Thanks

Parental Guidance
If this is your learner's first Outschool class I recommend getting familiar with the Zoom interface and platform before the class starts. Outschool has a few articles and videos that can help. Unfortunately I am really unable to deal with any technical issues once class has begun and if you are experiencing issues, it's best to contact technical support at Outschool directly via the HELP tab on the website.

Hi parents,
I have created a really fun interactive classroom through google sheets for one of our extra parts to class. This classroom has images of my own watercolor art that the students get to click on for a fun game or video. The videos are links to youtube videos (some are my own, and others are from kid friendly watercolor themed resources). I have done everything on my end to remove ads, however if you need to do something on your end to remove ads, or stop other videos from playing after the initial one I have linked please have those settings already in place, otherwise you can view along side your child. This is an optional extra your child can participate in, that is really fun.

Teacher expertise and credentials
This has been one of my more popular Summer Camp classes, and now offer it as a flex option so all students around the world can have fun with me. I love teaching watercolor, it's a fun fluid medium where you can be incredibly creative. My favorite part about teaching art classes is when I get to see the world through the eyes of the students by viewing their interpretations of the assignments I give them in class.
As mentioned in my teacher profile I have 10 years of experience teaching early education pre-K classes, in both North Carolina and Utah. I have been able to use my degrees in Visual Arts with a focus on Art History from NCSU and my Associate in Arts from Wake Tech Community College, to teach kids and adults: various art classes here in North Carolina for the past 7 years. With my scouting connections I have had 5 years experience teaching science and history classes in North Carolina and Florida. Whether it was as a Co-Op teacher for my local home school groups, Art merit Badge Counselor for the local Boy Scout clinic, teaching STEAM classes for Cub Scouts, Nail art and Jewelry Crafting to teenage girls in my church, or summer art classes through my business, The Painting Panda, I love being able to share what I have learned!Reviews
