In this ongoing class, students will be learning to draw and paint beautiful birds with watercolor and acrylic paint. We will break down the subject into simple shapes and use various painting techniques to finish our bird. Add your own creative backgrounds and bird friends! Lessons will be in a "work with me format" with visual and audio step-by-step instructions. I will show my finished work at the start of class as an example along with the supplies needed to create it. Art freedom and fun will be emphasized in a relaxed setting. Students will be encouraged to add their creative personal touches to their work. I will offer a sharing event at the end of the class and/or I will encourage students to upload their finished work to the classroom to share with me and their art friends.

The teacher explains basic skills about technical sketching as well as using the paintbrush. The results are cute and colorful animal pics." "Great teacher! Does great drawings and paintings and explains it very well." "My daughter loves this class. She has so much fun interacting with the other students and Ms. Michelle that she looks forward to it every week. She has also done private classes and enjoyed those so much that we joined this class. Ms. Michelle is an excellent teacher and so good with the students. I can’t recommend her or the class enough!"

FOLLOW ME FOR NEW CLASSES EVERY WEEK! :)
Hello art friends! I'm Ms. Michelle. I'm offering directional and expressive art projects for young learners. I'm an artist with my education in Fine Art. I believe whole heartedly in the Montessori philosophy. I owned Montessori schools for years and I've taught art to thousands of preschool and elementary students in person and online.
Art has always been my happy place where I can be myself, share experiences, and enjoy friends. My art classes will help students practice fine motor skills, follow oral and visual instructions, improve art skills, and express themselves through creativity and social classes.
I hope you will join me for fun art with friends or message me for a private class! I'm a full time Outschool Teacher so if you need another time for a class, please feel free to contact me. Thank you and I'll see you soon!
Schedule a class! Feel free to schedule any of my one time classes. There are over 300 choices! If you need assistance, please message me. I also teach several different weekly art medium classes! Check my schedule!
Some communications and policies for my classes:
*A special thank you to Outschool parents and learners who daily surprise me with their graciousness and support!
*Please follow me and click the notifications icon to be alerted of new classes each week and important classroom messages. :)
*Copyright on all my art on Outschool and all my classes on Outschool. Thank you for your integrity!
*Missed ongoing classes (only) may be offered one opportunity to join another time that week as a make up class. (transfer) My schedule fills quickly so let me know before the scheduled class. There are no refunds for missed classes.
*Late to Class Policy - If you’re more than 10 minutes late, I reserve the right to not admit you into class. This is a significant interruption in the process of creation for other learners. If there’s another time for the class, I’ll offer a transfer. If there’s a schedule conflict, please msg me for a transfer before class. No refunds for late arrivals. I appreciate your consideration.
*I do not release recordings of my classes. If there is a technical issue, I will try to reschedule the class with you. Technical issues are very rare due to Outschool's wonderful support team.Reviews
