How Drawcademy Works.
Important information for both students & parents.
▸ Pedagogy.
▸ Details for each class.
▸ Required supplies.
Like A Workout For Your Art.
▸ Review new concepts, and practice during class.
▸ Observation is fleeting; practice to retain long term.
▸ Learning happens through the hand.
Attempt 1 Minute Challenge Drawings.
▸ It is impossible to “finished” a drawing in this time frame.
▸ Forces you to simplify & focus on concepts
You Will Create Many Bad Drawings.
▸ A perfect drawing has never been accomplished in the history of art. Instead, focus on learning & enjoying the process. The score takes care of itself.
▸ Quantity leads to quality & at Drawcademy, you’ll draw a lot.
▸ In the face of perfectionism, 1/10 drawings might feel like a big deal, but 1/10,000 is a drop in the bucket.
▸ Made a bad drawing? Awesome effort. Time for the next one!
The Purpose Is To Have Fun, Learn New Things & Be Challenged.
▸ It is okay to feel frustrated or self conscious.
▸ If you say something not nice to yourself while drawing, note it simply as a thought, then continue to draw.
▸ If you spot a mistake, congrats - that means you’ve learned something new!
Sit On An Art Horse, Like A Horse.
▸ We have small & a tall art horse desks; Both fit all sizes, kids & adults.
▸ These professional art seats prevent distortion in your artwork.
▸ We recommend the clipboard rest in your lap so the drawing board is closer to you.
