My weekly animal watercolor painting class will be a great spin off of my original class, Watercolor Club. THIS class will focus JUST on animals! We will spend the first half of class sketching our animals using a step by step method through my top view camera. Students are encouraged to make any changes to their pictures to individualize them. This may be making them more cartoon style or more realistic, adding scenery, or anything else that pops up! We will then use our watercolors to create washes, create textures, blend colors, and experiment with all of the magical things watercolors can do to finish our animal paintings. I welcome some chatting in this class but also have times of focus and attention, to be sure all students learn and grow as artists. Muting of microphones will be utilized from time to time to ensure all can hear instructions clearly and everyone gets their turn to speak if they like. We will work rather small for this class, creating artworks that are about postcard size. Trimming or taping of paper may be necessary. Using smaller papers will allow us to draw and paint with much detail and keep to our time frame. Students are welcome to work larger if they can still keep up with the general pace of class.

Hello Outschool community!
I am April Taylor. I live with my amazing family in New York and I have been teaching visual arts on Outschool for 3+ years. I’ve been told I was “born to teach”. On Outschool, I teach art classes for children ages 8 and older. I I have classes in acrylic and watercolor painting, realistic drawing, and clay work. I hold a Bachelors degree in Art Education and a Masters degree in Professional Studies, where I focused on Humanistic and Multicultural Educational practices. I have 18+ years teaching experience in Prek-8 in virtual and in person settings.
As a teacher, I like to keep class fun, upbeat, and flexible. During classes, I encourage balance, in terms of focus and discussion/communicating with myself and classmates. Interaction, open discussion about planning, and ideas/suggestions for their own or other's art is highly valuable, as is, quiet focus and concentration. In every class, I teach using a step by step approach to demonstrate how to do the skills and use the materials. I feel this provides a solid foundation for students to master skills and then put them to practice once they become more confident and independent. I also encourage creativity and encourage students to add or omit elements from their work that make it unique to them. I would much rather have 8 different drawings at the end, than exact replicas of mine! If a child wants to take their project in a different direction, I fully support and encourage them to do so!
When I am not painting and working with clay, I love being out in nature, spending time with my husband, two hockey loving boys, and our dog child.
I look forward to meeting your child and helping them grow their love for art and learning. I hope to see your child in my classes soon!
