Our online art classes for kids use a project-based approach, ensuring each session is both engaging and educational. Every class focuses on a specific aspect of art, such as shading, perspective, portraiture, proportions, composition, texture, and colour theory, helping children explore and master fundamental artistic concepts.

Projects are designed to cover a variety of techniques, including watercolour, pencil, coloured pencils, markers, and charcoal, offering a comprehensive experience across multiple mediums. This approach ensures that young artists gain valuable skills, build confidence, and develop their unique artistic style.

Each project is carefully planned to contribute to overall artistic growth, encouraging children to expand their creativity and refine their techniques – all while learning conveniently from home.

Each online class introduces a new project, allowing children to join as their schedule permits while continuing to progress in their artistic journey. Weekly attendance is recommended to build skills steadily and maximise the benefits of the program. Sessions focus on practising key techniques while gradually introducing new ones, ensuring children develop confidence and artistic abilities at a comfortable pace.

Our online art classes for kids offer a different experience compared to our traditional classes held at the Mere Green Community Centre. In-person sessions allow children to receive focused, hands-on support from two dedicated tutors, offering guidance tailored to their needs.

Online classes, on the other hand, foster important skills such as independence and problem solving. Children learn to work through challenges on their own while still having the option to ask questions and personalise their artwork during live sessions.

These online sessions help build resilience, adaptability, and self-confidence, providing children with valuable skills they can use beyond the world of art. They are also an excellent choice for families looking for flexibility and the convenience of learning from home while still offering a creative and supportive environment.

Both options inspire creativity, nurture artistic growth, and ensure a rewarding experience for every young artist.
