디지털 아트 배우기: 동물 그림 그리기(진행 중)

Prepare to wow your friends and family with your amazing digital art creations in this class! Each class kicks off with a new topic or technique to boost your skills. Then, using your favorite digital art program, we'll paint animals based on reference photos. I'll guide you through each step, helping you fix any mistakes as we go along. Let's make some masterpieces together!

Class Structure:

1. Students are warmly welcomed and encouraged to share any artwork they've previously created with the class.
2. I'll teach a short (typically ten minutes) lesson, as outlined in the curriculum below.
3. Following the lesson, we practice what we learned (five-ten minutes).
4. I quickly explain the optional homework.
5. The bulk of the class time (typically more than an hour) we digitally paint an animal from reference together.


Curriculum: 

These are the following topics covered in this class. Each topic takes an average of four lessons to cover.

8. Brushwork
9. Master Study/Studies

*I am constantly reworking my curriculum and lessons to try to improve them. The overall idea of the curriculum is to teach your child the fundamentals of art so that they can create not just beautiful animals, but anything they can see or imagine. 

**You are welcome to use whichever program you like to create digital art (Photoshop, Krita, Procreate etc.).  However, you need a very basic knowledge of how to use the program.  I use basic tools so that the skills we learn are more easily transferable to traditional art. You should be able to create a new file, use the brush tool, and be able to choose colors.  A stylus is recommended.  Using the mouse is very difficult and I don't suggest it.
