I have an extremely talented student in my Adv. class. The majority of my students are in awe of this young man's work, especially his pen and colored pencil drawings.
I decided to let him give a demo to my Art 2 students and Adv. students one day last week. He was extremely nervous at first, but once he got into the swing of things he did a great job. The classes were very attentive to what he had to show and they are now applying what they learned to their own projects.
I hope to bring in former students into my classroom to give demos to my students. I believe my former students are a great resource and my students will enjoy learning from them.
I will post the picture of the piece he was doing for the demo soon.
An excellent way to foster growth and confidence. Often the best way to learn is to teach!
