We will be focusing a lot on shading, adding a few manga/ anime characteristics to our characters to give them that beautiful look.  We will be working on learning drawing techniques through drawing our characters: like hatching, dotting, etc)

Learn how to draw more advanced shapes so we can turn them into characters
Learn how to add animation characteristics to characters
Learn how to do more advanced level of shading with the gray scale and with color
Learn how to color fill a character smoothly, and with a variety of visual textures
Learn how to find joy in your art even though it may not seem "perfect"
Learn how to be a great classmate/peer by sharing your positive/ polite comments on their art

Each week you will learn how to draw step-by-step each pokemon character listed.  As I'm teaching advanced drawing skills, it is important that learners are already comfortable with the knowledge of how to draw: shapes, use different media tools mentioned in the supply list, and know letters from the American English alphabet.

When I started The Painting Panda, I wanted to offer a variety of art classes to many different ages of all children.  My boys love LOVE love Pokémon, and we've been learning to draw them, play the games, watch the shows, and follow Ash and his friends as they become Pokémon trainers for a few years now.  I'm so excited to offer a class where we can all learn to draw our favorite characters, and find out how to draw in different techniques as well.  These Pokémon drawing classes are now my most popular classes, and due to demand I physically cannot keep up with the requests for more classes.  This flex option I am hoping will help everyone I can't teach physically.

This has been one of my more popular classes I've offered to my local Homeschool group, local community during the summer, and even with my family private lessons.  I love teaching drawing classes for kids, especially pokemon themed as my own kids love pokemon.  My favorite part about teaching art classes is when I get to see the world through the eyes of the students by viewing their interpretations of the assignments I give them in class.

As mentioned in my teacher profile I have 10 years of experience teaching early education pre-K classes, in both North Carolina and Utah. I have been able to use my degrees in Visual Arts with a focus on Art History from NCSU and my Associate in Arts from Wake Tech Community College, to teach kids and adults: various art classes here in North Carolina for the past 7 years.  With my scouting connections I have had 5 years experience teaching science and history classes in North Carolina and Florida.  Whether it was as a Co-Op teacher for my local home school groups, Art merit Badge Counselor for the local Boy Scout clinic, teaching STEAM classes for Cub Scouts, Nail art and Jewelry Crafting to teenage girls in my church, or summer art classes through my business, The Painting Panda, I love being able to share what I have learned!

숙제 제공
Each Wednesday I post either a tip video to help improve drawing, or an interactive video custom to the class.  Where I ask a few questions and the students respond during the week with either a written note posted to the classroom, or via a video response.  This helps stimulate more interaction between students, and with the teacher.
