1 hora por semana. Each week, students will complete an in-class project. They are encouraged but not required to practice their new skills in watercolor painting outside of class or finish that day's painting project on their own time. I will offer students the opportunity to share the work they've completed outside of class at the beginning of every class.Calificación
Students will build an art portfolio throughout their time in my class. At the end of our time together, students will have the opportunity to share the work they're proud of in a class art show! I will also give them the chance to share (optional for the student) what they enjoyed most about the class, their favorite theme/project, etc.Experiencia de clase
