In this ongoing class, the student will learn a simple and fun way to draw fun characters from movies, television, and comics. Class sessions may include kawaii, anime, manga, Grogu (Baby Yoda), cartoons, and more. 

The teacher and the student will draw together as he guides her/him through a simplified, step-by-step process at a slow pace. 

This class will be learner directed, and we will draw a different character each week.

The required items will be the same each week.

Required items:
-- at least 2 sharpened pencils or a mechanical pencil with at least 2 pieces of lead
-- a good eraser (separate from the pencil and smudge-resistant, if possible)
-- a sketch pad or a small pack of letter-size, unlined white paper
-- a ruler or something that has a safe, straight edge and is easy to handle
-- a smooth, flat drawing surface

Optional items:
-- a vinyl eraser (better for drawing than pink erasers)
-- an erasing shield
-- a circle template 
-- a curves and shapes drawing template

You may repeat any of my classes as many times as you like. No two completed drawings will be exactly the same. Some students draw just for fun while others are serious about practicing and improving their skills over time. 

What are the advantages of taking a private drawing class? It is a more personalized experience. Generally, kids and their parents like having the teacher's undivided attention when it comes to a hands-on subject like drawing. As I check a student’s progress in a group class, there is no way to prevent classmates from seeing her or his work. That can be uncomfortable for the student since some kids do not catch on as quickly as others or draw as well as others. In a one-to-one class, students do not feel pressured to keep up with other students or compete with them.
