Beginner training plan
Your first lessonAt the first lesson, I review the materials needed for painting and refer the student to stores that carry the materials. As the lessons progress, I will provide informative handouts.
Lesson 2-3For the next few lessons I will talk about color and values. The student will create a color wheel.
Lesson 4-10The student will choose a subject with my help and will create a drawing of the subject. The drawing will be transferred to a canvas and the student will begin to paint.
Lesson 11+I will provide instructions as the student works on their artwork.
