I will try to explain in this section on how it will be done and what each student will need for the drawing class. I can go into more depth on information per student/situation, so please contact me for any questions you have. The classes/lessons cater towards what the students wants to do and learn to draw. Each class is roughly 1 hr long.
Working Online
Basically, I need a way to see the student's drawing and if possible the student as well. The student needs to see me draw and hear me talk, but not necessarily see me. That would be helpful though in talking with them. There is not a specific brand or model of cameras, laptops or computers as long as we can see each other well enough for viewing the artwork and doing the lesson. I can recommend products but it can be as simple as the student holding up the artwork in front of the camera, that will be fine.
The software that I will use for the online lesson will primarily be Google Meet but can use Zoom. All you need to use Google Meet is a gmail account. It is free, unlimited and very secure. This is what I prefer, but like I said I can use Zoom. Both of these software programs will allow multiple windows to where we can accomplish the drawing lesson. I am flexible on how we can make this happen though. I want to be able to help out as much as I can.
Traditional Art Lesson
The traditional art lesson consists of the student drawing with paper and pencils and they would follow what I do online. This lesson can also involve pens, inks and different markers. I do like to start off black and white and then proceed to using color. Supplies for the lesson will vary depending on the actual lesson. The basics will be just a drawing pad and pencils. The lesson can advance into pens, markers and using color. At that point or if it is a specific class/lesson, I will let you know the supplies you need. Just be mindful that if you are using a laptop or table to view the lesson, that you have it charged. A lesson is typically 1 hr long.
Digital Art Lesson
The digital art lesson will be conducted through what software the student is using on either a computer or tablet, iPad, etc. Just a reminder that I will need to see their work during the lesson. The student will need to be able to share that screen on the online software for the lesson or be able to show the work progress to the camera. If at the very least holding up the artwork in front of the camera. You may use whatever computer, tablet or iPad for the lesson. As for the software, I will be working in SketchBook Pro, but you can use Procreate, Clip Studio, etc. This is a lesson to learn to draw, not focused on learning the software. But during the lesson, you can be exposed to learning more on how to use the software. I would recommend that you are familiar with whatever software you choose. Just be mindful that a drawing lesson is typically 1 hr long so I recommend having your tablet or iPad charged for the lesson.
Types of Lessons
As said before, I will cater to what the student wants to draw or learn to draw. I can start off simple and then advance to learn more techniques. Focus on improving the student's skills. This can be just doing black and white drawing lessons and then progress to color and so forth. This will also be best determined on the age and experience of the student. My current age of the students I have range from 6yrs old to 25 yrs old.
My goal is to help out the student in their drawing by improving their skills, introducing new techniques, being creative and to have fun drawing!
