This will be a weekly class, for 6 weeks. I have many prepared projects to work on, and we will work on these projects together in class. We will draw together, and I will demonstrate at every step of the way. Later, they will have time to experiment with their own approaches to these subjects. We will start with basic skills, line, shading, shape making, a little perspective and design.  From there we move on to draw faces and full figure people, realistically and as cartoon characters. We will concentrate on increasing drawing skills, and finding subject matter, images, and expand our creative approach to making pictures. 

I have samples, props, and projects that will challenge them and should result in imaginative and decorative pictures. We will explore meaning and expression in our pictures, and use lots of color with pencils, markers and watercolors. Classes will all be live, and feature my personally designed projects that they can use as starting points. I will have a new package of projects that I will post up for easy download every week. Having worked with this age group before, I know they like to be challenged but also appreciate a guided approach. During the class I will draw with the and I will guide them step by step through some picture, others they will be on their own. As they progress, their own creativity takes over, and their pictures directly reflect their own personalities.
