Join us for a fun and relaxing watercolor class where we'll capture the charm of a sweet fox. Our instructor will guide you through the basics, from mixing colors to creating playful textures. By the end of the class, you'll have your own unique fox masterpiece to take home. Let's get creative and paint some foxy fun! ~ IMPORTANT~ Be on time for class! This is a step-by-step lesson, and you need to be on time. If your artist is late, I will let them in class, and they can participate where we are in the drawing. I will offer your artist the option of doing the complete lesson on the recording after class has finished and the lesson has been uploaded to the cloud. BEFORE CLASS Students should log into class about 5 minutes before the scheduled start time. This allows you time to resolve technical issues with your device's connection. If you use a battery-powered device (laptop, iPad, etc), be sure it is fully charged or connected to the power supply. I will use this time for students to show me any art they have completed and any questions before starting the class session. START OF CLASS First, we will review the supplies needed for the lesson and ask each student their name. I encourage students to use the chatbox during class for questions. If they have an answer to my questions, they are then allowed to unmute to answer the question. I love class participation! Especially when we learn from each other about art! Then, I will begin the step-by-step process of drawing out our character in easy-to-follow instructions. Each step will be broken down to the simplest form using common shapes like circles and lines. My favorite is comparing shapes to food! Like a potato or a pizza. This frees the artist to allow for imperfections in their initial sketch. Once we build our character, we will add details, texture, shading, and form to our drawing. If it is a painting, we will add it using watercolor paints. My teaching style is very patient and fun! We love to laugh and enjoy being creative together. My passion is to inspire kids to be innovative, hoping to build their confidence as artists and individuals. Each student is important and contributes to the class. END OF CLASS At the end of class, each student can show their work on the screen and tell the class about it! This is a big confidence booster! You can see how much they worked and listened in class when they hold up their final art piece! Thank you for encouraging your artist to be creative! *According to Outschool policy, all students need to be registered separately. If they are not, they are to be placed in the waiting room until the parent can make arrangements to register the extra learners, or the teacher may refund them. We understand the desire for friends or siblings to watch, but if two children participate under one registration, they will be sent back to the waiting room per Outschool policy. One child per registration. It is acceptable for registered learners to share a screen! * I do not offer refunds or transfers 24 hours before class time. I adhere to the Outschool refund and transfer policy: “Full refund or class-to-class transfer within 24 hours of the class start time.” You can view the class recording on the classroom page if you miss the class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Unleash your inner artist with drawing lessons for young creators!
I dream of making a fun space for young people to feel safe, be creative, and build confidence!
Do you have a young artist who loves drawing:
Dragons like Toothless from HTTYD or the fierce tribes of Wings of Fire?
The brave cats of Warrior Clans or the wonders of real animals?
Maybe their imagination wants to create something entirely new!
No matter what they love to draw, I'm here to help them learn and grow!
My passion is to inspire young people to:
~Find courage and confidence in their creativity.
~Master the skills to bring their artistic visions to life.
~Have fun and enjoy the process of creating.
From basic drawing techniques to exploring different mediums, my interactive classes are designed to:
~Build confidence and self-esteem.
~Spark the imagination and fuel creativity.
~Develop essential skills like observation and problem-solving.
~Most importantly, foster a lifelong love for art!
Whether your young artist is a beginner or wants to refine their skills, I have a class for them!
My journey began with sketching as a child and working on graphic designs for T-shirts as a teen. As an adult, I have designed and painted larger-than-life murals and now teach art classes to the public. I currently teach weekly live worldwide art classes online. I get in-person interaction with my local events for those in the Houston, Texas, area!
I reside in Houston, Texas, and I am a retired homeschooled mom of three. (My last kid graduated in 2024). And a proud U.S. Marine Mom! When not putting my latest art onto paper, I can be found "pumping iron" at the gym with my husband of over 27 years. My family is very committed to saving animals, and our house is always full of foster animals from our local animal shelter! Beware, you may see or hear a puppy, kitten, or guinea pig in a live class!
My passion is inspiring young people to find courage and confidence in their creations! Imagination is the doorway to being able to express yourself and be happy!
Motto: Be who you needed when you were younger.
