All interactions between students and the teacher will happen on the class page. This class will be presented via pre-recorded demonstration drawings. Students will engage in questions, class discussions on the classroom tab, assignments and be part of an artist critique, which will be guided by the instructor. Why Self-Paced? *MY Self-Paced...

Week 1Lesson 1Introduction to Castles; Starting the ArtStudents will practice drawing a traditional European style castle using simple lines and shapes. The teacher will demonstrate different ideas for added details that students can try, or use as a springboard for their own ideas. The video will end with the outlining of the final copy drawing with a Sharpie.Week 2Lesson 2Finishing the ArtThe teacher will demonstrate coloring techniques on the final copy castle using colored pencil, crayon, and/or watercolor techniques.
As a veteran art teacher, I have successfully developed methods for helping children break down seemingly complicated drawing tasks into simple steps for successful drawing. Castles are so much fun to draw because they allow for a lot of imagination to take place!
