For Parents, Teachers, Mentors, and Guardians:

Do you have a child who loves to draw that you’d love to help direct with some quality teaching and a positive sense of purpose? “Learn to Draw” is perfect for the child (or adult) who not only takes drawing seriously, but also wants to know what to do with the talent God gave them. Whether you simply want to give someone a broader exposure to round out their general education … or you want to supply someone with professional training that will help them take the next step in pursuing their passion, this course is for you.

For the Budding Cartoonist (of any age):

Have you ever wanted to know how to draw but didn’t know where to start? Do you have a creative itch inside of you but don’t know what to do with that yearning? “Learn to Draw” is the perfect course for you.  In this series of videos, Ron Wheeler teaches all the basics of cartooning, and yet he gives so much more. He shows you what it means to pursue your passion, whether it is learning how to draw cartoons or another creative interest. God gives everyone a set of unique gifts. It just sometimes takes a nudge from a course like this to bring them into fruition.

For the Home School Parent:

“Learn to Draw” is the perfect tool to round out your children’s home school experience. As a fellow home school parent himself, Ron knows what appeals to parents and children in home school settings. Ron developed this course with flexibility in mind. You can use an individual video according to your child’s interest, or incorporate several videos into a curriculum you’ve already developed, or you can follow the course from the beginning to end. You will find that Ron doesn’t just teach drawing skills, but he develops thinking skills and ministry skills. What goes into making a successful cartoonist is more than what you do with a pencil and paper. Ron presents this course with a sense of purpose in mind. You will learn what it means to give your gifts fully to the Lord and let Him use them for His purpose.

For Christian Schools and Home School Co-ops:

“Learn to Draw” is the perfect program to have in your school arsenal.

• It can be used individually for those unique, creative students who want to know how God can use their creative abilities for His purpose.

• It can also be used in a classroom setting to augment what the students are already learning. For example, a high school English teacher may want to use the videos on how to create children’s book or comic strips to round out a unit on creative writing. Or an elementary teacher may want to use the videos on drawing games or tracings to have something to keep her kids busy during recess on a rainy day.

• Or finally, the videos can be used as a stand-alone class from start to finish. You have the flexibility to make the unit as long or as short as you like. You can double up on some of the videos or you can spread them out. For example, you may want to pause the teaching videos to spend extra time helping your children learn how to sculpt clay heads for modeling purposes, or spend extra time having students work on developing their own children’s books. You have the flexibility to do that. These videos have plenty of information to get you started.

• Then by also subscribing to the Image Vault, you will have downloadable resources to help you customize the class any way you like. The image vault will give you more drawings kids can trace. At CartoonWorks.com the Stinky Stevens books will give you examples of children’s books the kids can emulate. The coloring pages can keep the younger kids occupied. The cartoon tracts can be downloaded and printed as examples to hand out. The Sketchbook Manual can serve as a textbook or as a refresher course. And on and on. There’s no end to how you can use all of the tools from CartoonWorks.com.
