Hey all! This week in art we are going to begin our work with color pencil. Color pencil is often thought of when people think about simple color and school projects like maps, but color pencil has a very wide range of possibilities and is often used in mixed media like pastels and painting. Our first project this week will focus on controlling colors and mixing. We will finish it out with a still life than lets students apply color to objects that they are already familiar with.

Hey all! So, we are off to a slower start that I would have liked for this 9 week's art class, but hopefully everyone who has been lacking supplies have purchased them. I have moved the deadline for the $20.00 class fee to November 5th as well. I hope this helps in that department too. We are going to work on form and contour this week using multiple still life photos and hopefully we can move on to color pencil next week.
Hey all! I hope that since we've had a week that you were able to at least purchase your pencils, erasers and drawing tablet. Remember that our class fee of $20 is due on October 25th. If everyone is ready, we are going to start getting to know our pencils this week. Sounds boring, but there is a lot going on with graphite and you're going to learn all about it!
Welcome to Art! Through this 9 weeks you will be experiencing multiple medias in the art world such as what you would expect like pencil and color pencil, to mediums that you wouldn't expect, like Conte Crayon, pastel and watercolor. There are certain supplies that are needed for the class and I will hand out a supply list in class for that. There is also a $20.00 fee for the class that is used to buy the supplies that are not on the supply list, which include things like watercolors, pastels, pastel paper, conte crayon and other supplies needed for the class for things like clean up (wipes, paper towels, etc). If you have any questions, you can email me at [email protected].
This week we will finish our watercolor paintings as well as start on a new project. From now until the end of my time with this group, we will work on projects that are based on themes and the student is able to pick their medium to work in for this project.
Hey all! This week we will be starting on watercolor and I can't be more excited. Watercolor has quickly become one of my favorite mediums as well as super popular on YouTube and Patreon among younger people as a way to quickly express their ideas.
Hey all, this week we will working with pastels! If possible, bring something to cover up your clothes. Pastels should come out of most clothes, but it might be easier to just not test that idea. A large shirt or an old apron would be a good idea. We will mostly be working on landscapes in this medium. The colors are very vivid and there is a lot of technique to learn with it, but the results can be amazing to see.
Hey all! This week is exciting because we will be working with Conte Crayon and Mi-Tints paper. We will also critique our first landscape color pencil drawing. I'm excited to see how they did!
Hey all! This week in art, we will continue working in color pencil and will be working on blending in our drawings. I have placed our order to Blick as well. We will work on line drawing to be used alongside color pencil and hopefully by next week we can begin on Conte Crayon as well.
Hey all! This week in Art, we are going to be working in color. We will start with a simple color exercise using the colors that you have and a color wheel. Later in the week, hopefully by Wednesday, we will move on to our next assignment where we will work with a still life and will have it colored by Friday. Looking forward to getting to work this week!
