Dibujo de animales fácil y divertido para artistas jóvenes (en curso)

This is a beginner’s drawing class and no prior knowledge is required.  We will be drawing a new animal each week so come join us any time!  The goal of our class is to foster the joy of making art while building confidence, fine motor skills, and focus!  

Each week in this ongoing class students will get to make a simple animal drawing.  We will begin each class by saying hello and checking that we have our supplies ready.  Then we will look for the shapes that make up the animal that we are studying.  We will practice drawing in the air to build our muscle memory before following the teacher in a step by step directed drawing.  All drawings will be demonstrated on screen so students can easily follow along with the teacher, and while directions are detailed I also encourage students to add their own creative touches.  If students finish their drawings and have time they may outline and color in their animal pictures.

As students work, I always make sure to provide feedback, encouragement, and additional instructions as needed.  If time allows, at the end of class our young artists will have the opportunity to share their artwork with their classmates.  While each demonstration will be finished by the end of class, students may want to continue working on their masterpiece after we have signed off for the day.  Everyone works at a different speed, and it's better to take our time than to rush!
