畫一隻可愛的刺蝟並用水彩畫〜簡單又有趣

Explore & Create using Watercolor Paints with a Hedgehog in the Flowers! Let me take your artist step by step to learn the fun world of watercolor paints! 

ABOUT
In this class, your artists will learn to draw and paint step by step. No drawing experience is needed for this class! No experience is needed! 

BEFORE CLASS
Students should start logging into class about 5 mins before the scheduled start time. This allows time for you to resolve any technical issues with your device's connection.  If you are using a battery-powered device (laptop, Ipad, etc) be sure it is fully charged or connected to a power supply.

I will use this time for students to show me any art they have completed and any questions prior to starting the class session. 

START OF CLASS
First thing, we will go over the supplies needed for the lesson and will ask each student their name. I encourage students to use the chatbox during class for questions. If they have an answer to my questions they are then allowed to unmute to answer the question. I love class participation!  Especially when we learn from each other about art! 

Then I will begin the step-by-step process of drawing out our character in easy-to-follow instructions. Each step will be broken down to the simplest form by using common shapes like circles and lines.  My favorite is comparing shapes to food!  Like a potato or a pizza. This frees the artist to allow for imperfections in their initial sketch. Once we build our character out, we will add details, texture, shading, and form to our drawing. If it is a painting we will add these using the watercolor paints step by step together.

My teaching style is very patient and fun! We love to laugh and enjoy being creative together. My passion is to inspire kids to be creative in hopes this will build their confidence as an artist and as an individual. Each student is important and contributes to the class.

END OF CLASS
At the end of class, each student is allowed to show their work on the screen and tell the class about their work!  This is a big confidence booster!  You can see how much they worked and listened in class when they hold up their final art piece!  Thank you for encouraging your artist to be creative!
