About

Each week, we'll be going over different things or types of artwork you can make. If needed, we'll spend multiple days on the same artwork to make sure everyone can complete it and understands the work. This is a beginner's guide to art, however, those advanced are also welcome to join us!

Throughout the series, learners are encouraged to:
  • Ask questions and seek guidance
  • Share their work and progress
  • Provide feedback to others
  • Engage in discussions and activities

By following this series, learners will gain a solid foundation in art, confidence in their abilities, and a passion for creative expression.

Here are the recommended (not 100% required) materials for this series:
  • Pencil(s)
  • Eraser
  • Paper Towels/Tissues
  • Pen(s)
  • Watercolor Paint
  • Acrylic Paint
  • Q-Tips
  • Markers
  • Paper
  • Sharpie or Black Marker
  • Colored Pencils
  • Crayons
  • Oil Pastels

We're very excited to work with you all, and hope to see you soon! (´• ω •`)ノ

Session 1

Art

Welcome to the orientation! We'll give an overview of the series, and then we will jump right in with a warm-up exercise. Afterward, we'll start our "Data Drawing Selfies" by following the step-by-step instructions by the designer Giorgia Lupi!

Session 2

Art

We'll be practicing different types of fonts, and drawing symbols that represent ourselves for our "sketchbook" covers!

Symbols are a part of our everyday lives. We know what they are asking us to do just by seeing a picture. These could be linked to your interests, style, and even your culture!

A font is the design of letters and contains their style details.

Session 3

Art

We will be practicing zentangles ("...coined by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas when, one day, Maria described her experience, as she created her art, as "feeling timeless, free and engendering a sense of deep well-being") so we can draw them on our "sketchbook" covers!

Session 4

Art

Today, we will be making a cover with our names! We will cover the page with zentangles, lines, images that reflect our interests, and doodles that we can use to make our cover much more unique and personal!

Session 6

Art

Today we will be starting our "Digital Mosaics"! We will first start off by identifying 3 things about ourselves (example: tall, funny, outgoing…), and then we will identify 3 animals with similar characteristics. Afterward, we will find a picture (photograph of the animal not a mosaic) of each animal that could work for this mosaic project. Once this is done, we can begin!
