1 hora por semana. There will be no formally assigned homework, but every artist works at a different pace so some may have to finish exercises or assignments outside of class.Evaluación
To remove the stress of what is sometimes a very daunting course of study, your learners will not have tests, quizzes, or formal grades in the class. Instead, I utilize positive verbal critiques to provide feedback and encourage improvement. However, if grades are requested I will provide them via rubrics that will suggest a grade. Learners progress will be gauged by the completion of their assignments, execution of techniques, contributions in critique sessions, and their class presence (being on-time, listening when I am speaking, and how they communicate with peers).Calificación

How to Draw: Foundations is an art course for any young artist interested in learning or brushing up on the absolute fundamentals of drawing. This course includes a series of lessons focused on foundational topics in drawing including materials, holding pencils, and making marks, constructing objects with basic shapes, how to use references and set scenes, value creation and more. How to Draw: Foundations will encourage young artists to PLAY, LEARN, and PRACTICE through every class by giving them the opportunity to engage with the topic of the lesson, introducing fun and easy exercises or assignments, and building good art practice habits. "How to Draw" classes are art courses based of the fundamental techniques of art and drawing. These courses are designed to teach young artists how to draw anything by building important skills such as mark-making, line drawing, shading, proportions, and more though the lens of observational drawing. Observational art is a method of drawing that emphasizes visual perception with three principles in mind: understanding of the subject, building looking skills, and practice of artistic technique. These classes combine lecture periods, worksheets, and free-hand drawing time to ensure learners understand the material and get ample practice time. This course is suitable for any young artist looking to build a strong art foundation.
Metas de aprendizaje

Lesson 1: Materials
The world of art materials is huge! There are so many supplies and many ways to use each. This class will focus on introducing artists pencils, charcoal, colored pencils, alcohol markers, erasers, and paper to young artists through play and brief discussions. Learners will be asked to draw with their tools to make as many different marks as possible and use their tools in new ways. Young artists will create “journal pages” dedicated to each tool with notes on how to use them. 75 minutos de lección en vivo en línea

Lesson 2: Making Marks & Lines
Mark making is the basis of all art, so it is super important to know the basic marks most subjects are composed of and practice creating lines. Most subjects are made with three basic line shapes: C, S and I. In addition, there are various ways to vary the stroke or mark to get different effects. This class will cover basic mark making skills and ways to vary line. Young artists will get to practice blind contour drawing and draw a creature using their line shapes and stroke variation. 75 minutos de lección en vivo en línea

Lesson 3: Using References & Constructing Scenes
Art can be produced from two primary places: the imagination and the reference. It can be difficult to draw everything from imagination, which is why using references is so important. In this class, young artists will learn the importance of using references, how to find and use good references, what “drawing from life means”, and how to create their own references by constructing scenes. We will also discuss how to find good references through various sources. 75 minutos de lección en vivo en línea

Lesson 4: Constructing Objects
Construction, in art, is the ability to simplify subjects and draw subjects with basic shapes or forms. For example, it’s looking at a can of soda and identifying that it is made with a cylinder form. Of course, subjects can be much more complex, like faces and human figures. This process of simplification is one of the most important parts of drawing! In this class, we will begin by practicing drawing simple shapes and forms such as circles, spheres, boxes, cylinders and more. 75 minutos de lección en vivo en línea

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I am delighted to be able to offer classes that emphasize fine art techniques through the lens of observational drawing. Observational art is a method of learning to draw with three principles in mind: understanding of the subject, building looking skills, and practice of artistic technique. Through this method and practice, learners can draw anything. Completion of my courses will result in a learner who is engaged with art and understands basic art technique. Even students who are not aspiring artists have much to gain from drawing, including improvement of hand-eye coordination and hand dexterity skills.
Along with my bachelor’s degree in art history and studio art from a premier liberal arts institution in Ohio, I also have been teaching since 2016. My online teaching career began on Outschool in 2017. I have taught homeschoolers, unschoolers, and undergraduate students of all ages. My background in art history means that my classes are created with an understanding of historical precedence- I’m teaching what I know works! Many of my classes include examples of important artworks from masters for students to examine and learn skills from. In addition, my many years of teaching art have helped me curate concise and logical drawing curriculum that young artists can easily pick up and apply to their work. Every art class I teach hopes to provide learners with all the knowledge and support they need to grow as an artist.
In this course, we will briefly cover simple, easy wrist and arm stretches in our fourth lesson. These stretches will include: moving the hand up, down, left, and right, rotating the hand, clenching and unclenching the fist, and gently stretching the wrist by pushing back on the fingertips and palm. These stretches are intended to be learned and practiced to help prevent wrist pain and hand fatigue. These stretches are optional. Learners will be encouraged to perform all stretches gently and stop if there is any pain or discomfort. Reseñas
