Do you have a child interested in art or ballet? I have several classes available through Outschool.
Some of my available classes are:
The Basics of Drawing - a beginning drawing classes for ages 7-11. We will cover lines, shapes, shading, symmetry, realism, and abstract art.
Introduction to Drawing Skills and Techniques for ages 12-16 - in this beginning drawing class we will learn shading, contour drawing, gesture drawing, perspective, and illusion drawing.
Introduction to Great Artists- This is an art history class for ages 10-15. In each class receive a presentation about an artist (biographical and artistic information will be presented), discuss the artist and the artwork, and have a chance to recreate the art or create in the style of the artist.
Basic Ballet for ages 6-9- a great way to start learning ballet. Students will learn foot positions, arm positions, and beginning movements, as well as stretches. Students will have a well rounded class from slow movements to quick.
Classical Ballet- This ballet class is for ages 10-15. This class is for the student that already knows some basic movements and what's to continue progressing.
I Just Want to Draw! A Social Club- a social art group for teens. Every week we have a different theme that we draw (use pencils, marker, paint markers, whatever you want) while we chat about our interests.
Let's Draw Together! A Social Club- a social group for ages 7-12. Just like the teen group we will have a different theme each week. We will draw and talk about our favorite topics.
