Message to a future Artist

"You know what I think? I think everyone has the ability to tap into their inner artist, even if they don’t know it yet. The kids, youth and adults I have met have this amazing inner power, like a giant sun that burns deep inside and all they need is a guide that will encourage them to explore and have fun with Art.

So check out my free inspiration videos and let’s see your sun shine!!!
Every person can learn. If they explore the world of art and have fun learning, I think, they will be the best artist they can be. But, finding an art series that is free and open to everyone and all abilities is quite hard. So, I have a plan! 

I will be creating short online visual art videos that will inspire each person’s natural abilities and help develop awareness of art and natural artistic skills.

You have the power - If you don’t understand the video the first time watching, or you want to try again and again - YOU CAN. You can watch 1000 times if you need to. 
​

No matter what the age or ability this series is for you!


Art Journaling Through COVID-19

Trying to find a balance with your emotions, stress, and fear is very hard to do during this uncertain time. I know for me finding a sense of 'normal' life has been very difficult when I am used to having outlets for all these built-up emotions. I wanted to share with you this great idea to help manage all these thoughts and emotions during this difficult period. I want to encourage you and everyone in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD to join me in creating an artwork that we can reflect on as a positive memory throughout this challenge.

Let's throw our emotion on to a page instead of at each other.
Art With Aiden Virtual Classroom - 'Sunset Daffodils'

Creating a bounty of colourful blooms in our art journals is the first virtual classroom with Aiden online series. It's fun and easy for junior levels, with sunshine -yellow and orange flowers on a black and green geometric background. Hope you have your book ready! ​
Art with Aiden virtual classrooms - Sakura Blossoms 🌸

How would you describe Japanese cherry blossoms - ‘sakura blossoms'? These beautiful pink, red and white flowers are a sign of love, compassion and spring, a symbol of Japan. Now we can have a chance to learn a new technique using a pallet knife and saran wrap. Are you ready - Let's go!

Art with Aiden virtual classrooms - Qigong Painting

In this video we learn to paint with our life energy or Qi as we understand how this Qigong inspired painting comes to life.
Art with Aiden virtual classrooms - Free your mind

Opening the mind can be hard when we are stressed and worried and sometimes we may even close off our thoughts or block our feelings to protect ourselves. ‘Freeing the mind’ is a style that I use to break away from the locks that hold me and hmm open the doors to creativity, colour , lines, design and shapes. This is an intuitive art piece that speaks only to the artist who is creating. So please try it- freeing your mind will set you free.

ART BASICS ONE

DISCOVERING ART AROUND YOU:  EXPLORING TEXTURE

​
Texture is all around you. Come with me to ‘Winners’, and lets identify different types of textures. Learn while going on an adventure together. 

So what is texture exactly? 

Texture, is a word people use to to describe how something feels when it is touched. Like is it bumpy, smooth, rough, or fluffy. 

Texture can be visual. This means it looks a certain way but when you touch it, it feels completely opposite. This is done with light and shadows. 

Texture can also be 2 D and 3D.



ART BASICS TWO

LEARNING ABOUT LINES


A line is kinda like a dot that moves. The minute it moves it becomes a line. Also, a line has to be longer than its width 


Line may be two dimensional like a drawing or a painting or three-dimensional like a sculpture. 

For me it’s all about texture and lines. Pressing lighter and darker will give you different lines. 

7 elements of art: All art has at least one of these 7 elements 
The visual components of color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value.

Lastly. Lines are everywhere, up, down, to the left and to the right. Take a moment to be inspired by lines. 

‘Humans are living lines’ - Aiden Lee ​

ART BASIC THREE

LEARNING ABOUT LAYERS


What is Layering?


Layering in a painting is used to refer to multiple concepts, separate products , materials and processes. Each time an artist adds to the painting on top of...it counts as layering. 

"Life is like Layers, just like a painting. The more layers just adds to the strength of the colour and texture. It makes each piece more interesting."
- Aiden Lee
