私人繪畫課程：與插畫家一起繪製富有想像力的人物

Do you love to imagine cute and fun characters and create stories about them through drawing? As a picture book illustrator this is something that I love to do. In this class we will design and draw characters, adding our own interpretation and story.  Characters may be inspired by animals, fairy tales, holidays, fantasy, science fiction, or outer space. 

This is a one-on-one private drawing lessons which means that students may enroll for as many sessions as they like. 


LESSON SEQUENCE:
-5 minutes to check in and decide on subject
-20 minutes to sketch and draw (instruction continues as we draw together)
- 5 minutes to share

SKILLS TAUGHT:
-drawing with simple shapes

I will set up a second camera projection and students are able to follow along with me. I ask questions related to drawing technique and drawing composition as a means of engaging students in the drawing process. I strive to create a supportive classroom environment where everyone is welcome.
