Unlock Creativity and Bring Minecraft Animals to Life in Your Drawings! Imagine your student wowing friends and family with stunning artwork of their favorite Minecraft animals! Guided by a professional artist, they’ll develop creativity, gain new drawing techniques, and have fun connecting with others who share their passion for art and Minecraft. In this class, your student will: ✅ Build confidence in their skills with personalized feedback and encouragement. ✅ Learn to draw Minecraft animals step by step with guidance from an experienced instructor. ✅ Add their own creative flair to each drawing, from custom colors to imaginative embellishments. ✅ Overcome perfectionism and enjoy the creative process with gentle, supportive instruction. ✅ Share their work and receive uplifting feedback to inspire their growth as an artist. Each week, your student will tackle a new Minecraft animal, from drawing the initial outline to adding optional colors.

Our goal is to create a fun and positive atmosphere where every student feels proud of their creations! Why Choose Megapixels School of the Arts?

🎨 Danikka is an Arkansas-based professional artist with a degree in fine arts who loves instilling a passion for creativity in others. Born and raised in Mexico, she draws much of her inspiration from her tierra patria as well as from her dreams and her favorite animals- horses. In addition to her 10 years of teaching experience as well as her TEFL and TESOL certifications, she also creates custom commissions for drawings, paintings, and even murals.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent class led by a wonderful teacher. My son started as a beginner and I've seen his drawing skills and abilities improve greatly. He looks forward to this class every week and is always excited to show me his newest Minecraft creation. Highly recommend!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My daughter loves portrait class, and I love seeing her drawings! Miss Danikka is extremely patient and supportive. She's helpful every step of the way, and she gives great feedback throughout the class. There's a good variety of faces to draw and great instruction too. Highly recommend!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️My 11 year old loves this class! She had always been a talented artist, but I see so much improvement each and every week in her drawing. We’ve had a few different instructors over the past school year, which always makes me nervous, but with each instructor, my daughter still improves and learns a new technique. I also love the class format of switching between a certain facial feature and sketching a whole face every other week. Could not recommend this class enough!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very nice class. My 7-year old had a lot of fun and made a lovely work of art!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent class for wings of fire fans! My kids love the graphic novels and chapter books and they enjoyed drawing the dragons a lot. The teacher is very nice and teaches drawing very comfortably.
🎨Jaime is a Texas based teacher with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. She has a passion for teaching and a love of learning. She has a lot of practice in differentiated teaching for large groups as well as one on one settings, providing a balance of challenging her students to improve while also building their confidence in their artistic abilities. Jaime has training in different drawing mediums (graphite, charcoal, pastels, etc.), watercolor, photography, and 2D design. She is an art history enthusiast, and loves to know the stories behind paintings, statues, and architecture. Outside of the classroom, she enjoys writing, reading, taking care of her farm animals, watching movies with her husband, being outside with her two dogs, and creating crafts for her daughter
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️This class is fantastic and Jaime is an excellent teacher. Jaime is patient and great at explaining everything. My son has gained a lot of confidence since joining her class. I also love the way the class is structured. One week they’ll draw a portrait of someone and the next week they’ll work on a specific feature of a person I.e. hair or eyes. This is great because it enables the students to incorporate what they learn into other art projects they do outside of class. If your child loves to draw, I highly recommend this class.
