Introduction:
Long before I was a parent, I was an art teacher. I taught elementary and middle school art, and then moved into the field of learning in major institutions which is where AmritaParyani.ART was born. While many of you are parents like me, I know that a fair number of our readers are also homeschoolers and/or educators. Because I love this stuff, and I know that many of you do too, I compiled this growing list of the best art education.

Art means exploring, experimenting, expressing and desiring through a gamut of colors, representing myriad emotions of the students and the teachers as well.

Learning to draw is a process, even if it is a fun one. In this course, you're going to learn the processes and techniques that gave rise to some of the most talented artists in the world. What you're going to learn over the fifteen lessons will be in-depth, professional information. It can be comparable to signing up for an art class at a large university.

When I was teaching art to hundreds of children, one of my favorite ways to teach children how to use paints was to begin with kid-friendly subjects like fish, butterflies, or flowers. In fact, I have so many projects based on these subjects that it’s almost dizzying!
Designed for children who may not have an art teacher guiding them through the steps, this project is perfect for parents hoping to create a little magic at home for CBSE and ICSE Grade 10th or less Kids.

In this strand, children will learn to use a range of tools and techniques to create artwork. They're given the opportunity to showcase their skills and use their imagination to create incredible pieces.

Children will be expected to make art with increasing skill and confidence as they progress through the stages, learning to select the right materials and media for the purpose of the art. We’ve created a range of Making resources, designed to support children as they explore different artistic techniques and develop their own style.
