素描面孔-卡通寫實學習/素描藝術課

Welcome to Mrs. D's Art Room, where it is always a good day when you are learning something new!

In this ongoing class, young artists will use step-by-step instructions to draw some awesome human faces using shading pencils, colored pencils, and pens.

While learning cartoon human faces, we will focus on unique human face shapes, features, enormous eyes, and expressions. While learning realistic faces, we will focus on facial proportions, realistic eyes, and face angles (front, profile).
In some projects, they will also study and learn the shading details of the eyes, nose, ears, and lips.

*Young artists will learn a few techniques to draw expressive eyes and make them look lively with sketching. Using different angles each week we will understand how the shape and size of the eyes change with the angle.

Here's how the class will work:

First, we'll spend 5 minutes introducing ourselves.

Next, we'll spend 10 to 15 minutes drawing using easy steps and basic shapes. I'll share fun facts about the characters while we draw.

Then, we'll spend 40-45 minutes drawing faces and characters using various techniques, textures, and sometimes basic shading to create art that follows facial anatomy.

In the last 5 minutes, we'll finish our projects and have time for any questions or to talk about the next class project.

I'll use a dual screen so the kids can see me drawing with them throughout class.

Kids are encouraged to make their artwork unique and complete it independently if they're not finished in class. I'll adjust the pace based on the student's abilities, going slower or faster as needed. I'll also extend the class for a couple of minutes whenever possible if a student needs more time.

This is an ongoing course, so students can enroll or withdraw at any time. In each meeting, young artists will create ONE drawing. Please check the scheduled times to see which week each drawing will be taught and the materials needed for each drawing.

No experience is needed for this class; learners will follow the directions I give. If this class interests your learner, please sign up. I'm excited to meet your learner!

Hope to see your young artist in my classes soon!
