In this weekly 35 minute drawing class, kids will have loads of fun drawing their favorite Pokemon as I teach them how to go from basic guide lines to fully drawn works of art!
Each class starts out exactly the same with a brief introduction from me explaining the Pokemon we will be drawing that week, as well as how we will go about drawing it.
After the brief intro, we'll move on to drawing our Pokemon. During this portion, the students will follow along as I teach them step-by-step how to break down the Pokemon into basic shapes and lines, known as guide lines, drawn in very lightly in pencil. Guide lines are the best and easiest way to make the end drawing exactly how they want. They help so well with proportion and confident finishing touches later!
Once the guide lines are finished, we'll be using a black Sharpie marker to make the final lines. A lot of these final lines will be traced over the guide lines previously drawn. After the final lines are drawn, the pencil guide lines will be erased, leaving students with an amazing black and white picture of their Pokemon.
After the guide lines are erased, students will use this time to color their epic Pokemon drawings however they want! They can use colored pencils, markers, crayons or whatever else they like to color with in whatever color their imagination chooses. Students may even choose to leave their drawings black and white if it's a look they prefer. This is also a great time for students to get to chat and socialize with each other about their favorite Pokemon, or whatever else they choose to talk about.
At the end, students may show off their amazing drawings to the rest of the class! 
Teaching students how to draw using something they love (like Pokemon) is a great way to introduce basic drawing skills and judging proportion because each lesson is based on a character they visually know very well.
I always love keeping my classes super fun and encouraging. Positive energy is a great way to either spark or continue a passion for art in any Pokemon Trainer Artist!

**Note to the parents: This class requires lots of hand dexterity and hand eye coordination. Examples of this include drawing and erasing with light pressure, and being able to draw specific shapes and lines demonstrated on screen.  Although I have designed each drawing to be done within the time frame of the class, I also know that each child learns at a different pace, works at a different speed, and has different levels of hand dexterity and hand eye coordination. I also don't know your child or the pace they work at. It is up to you as the parent to decide by looking at the thumbnail if you feel these kinds of drawings are too difficult and/or if you're not confident they can complete it in the time frame.**
