Students will be able to create a drawing that is all their own.  They will learn about shapes and lines that comprise the subject, and how their combination contribute toward completion. Shading and blending techniques will be taught, with students deciding to what extent they would like to add these features to their piece.  The choice will be theirs.

I am a lifelong, self- taught artist, beginning at a very young age. I received 3 years of advanced art instruction in secondary school. My experience includes selling my work in an art gallery which I owned and operated. I continue to be privately commissioned and give pieces as gifts. Prior to retiring from working in special education, I applied my skills in the form of art therapy for behaviorally challenged children in the classroom setting.

Evaluación
Frecuencia: incluido
Detalles: Assessment is informal. It is based on the specific stages of each student’s drawing reached outside of class, should they desire to work between classes. In this case, they are welcome to send me snapshots via Outschool email for evaluation. This option is convenient especially for students who miss class due to illness or a vacation. Assessments are also made during class after each step pertaining to each student’s drawing is completed. 

Students with behavioral challenges are welcome to attend. Please notify me of this in advance. I will make sure the pace of my instruction suits the learner -not too fast or too slow - by frequent communication.
