초보자 수채화 동물(플렉스 클래스) 4부: 그림판다를 통해

Welcome to The Painting Panda Classroom: (FLEX CLASS) Watercolor Animals Part 4 of a 12 class series!

Where we'll create, bend and wave our brushes like bamboo, and learn our own styles within the realm of Watercolor!

This is a Flex class, meaning NO LIVE CLASSES, you sign up and then watch the videos as your schedule allows, participate in the classroom discussion, communicate with other classmates by commenting positively on their art once posted to the classroom, and ask any question you want, and share your work as you complete each project.   

With this class you don't need to have much knowledge about watercolors, as the techniques we'll be practicing will help give you a basic to intermediate level knowledge of watercolor by the end of class.  We will be using various techniques to learn to paint different types of animals/ insects.  Watercolor is relaxing, reflective, and persuasive when it comes to painting mediums and I encourage such creativity with zen like background music for each class.  With many ways to "do watercolor" I've decided to include a few with techniques, practice sessions, as well as examples of what we'll be doing, then step by step painting instructions for each class.  

This class theme is Pets 2.0.  Each week we'll learn how to draw and paint different Pets with watercolor.  Yes, we draw with brushes when you learn from The Painting Panda Teacher.  Each week we'll cover a new type of watercolor technique, so that in the end of class students will know at least 4 different watercolor techniques, how to paint 4 different Pets, and learn trade secret tips along the way.

Week 1: We will be covering the following: Snake

Week 2: We will be covering the following: Hedge Hog

Week 3: We will be covering the following: Rat

Week 4: We will be covering the following: Guinea Pig

I will post my instruction videos, my step-by-step videos by week each Monday no later than 5pm EST.  Tuesday is our tip video day.  Wednesday is our specified peer interaction day that I help encourage through any of the following means: games, trivia, video chatting with peers, ice breakers, animal fact quizzes, interactive classrooms, etc.  On Thursdays I'll check into class to see how everyone is doing through specific questions I post to the classroom.  For this class I have created an interactive classroom specifically designed to help give students more interaction with each other and myself outside of our painting project.  The classroom will have a variety of video clips I've created, found on youtube, or Q&A, FAQs I've created.  Parents please read the parent guidance section for this class, as students will need your approval to participate with this classroom. Friday is our Art submission day, this means that students upload an image or video clip of their art work directly to the classroom, and then comment on at least one other classmate's art in a polite, positive manner.  I will do a video about how to offer supportive, encouraging, but meaningful advise from classmate to classmate.  On Fridays I'll check into class to see finished projects from students (that they have uploaded to class), and give simple feedback.  I will not be doing formal assessments during this time, but rather teaching students how to have positive peer led opportunities.  This is of course optional if there is a student that really doesn't feel comfortable doing so, however it is also highly encouraged with this type of participation.  I do also give my own engaging words of wisdom, tips, and praise to each individual student who shares their art in our classroom.  Sunday's are my off days, and I won't respond to anything on this day.  This is of course based off my location in North Carolina USA in the EST zone.    

For weeks that different supplies are needed (generally something around the house like a sharpie or salt) , I'll post a separate supply list video on Monday along with the regular videos.
