In this workshop, elementary school educators will learn ways to help their students develop their drawing skills by practicing dimensional drawing, movement, and textures. Pivot points will be added to two-dimensional art so that drawings come to life. These sessions will use a variety of budget-friendly materials that students may already have at home and that are easy for teachers to get for their classrooms. Participants will create classroom samples as well as personal art pieces. Lesson plans and visuals will be provided.
Ashley McKee is currently teaching kindergarten through sixth grade art in Westfield, Pennsylvania. She actively advocates for the arts in her rural community, uses local resources, celebrates what makes the area special, and maximizes student experiences on a shoestring budget. She encourages her students to explore, make mistakes, and try new things. The primary goal of her work in the classroom is to develop creative problem solvers who can communicate effectively. McKee recently presented for the virtual art conference A Call to Art, hosted by Art Class Curator, in which she shared ways to make art with what is available in remote areas and when supplies are limited. She has also been a presenting artist for Pentel of America. In this role, she focuses on thanking her community through her illustrations.
