Before & After
Before & After drawing classes illustrate the significance and impact drawing instruction
has on children.
Young Rembrandts conducted demonstration classes to illustrate the effect of receiving drawing instruction has on children.
Some student test groups (both pre-school and elementary children) drew faces while others drew houses. We also held a quick
demonstration on coloring techniques for some elementary students.
Classes drew their Before drawing on their own, with no instruction. Then the Instructor walked the class through the
After drawing with guided observation and discussion. The details of the demonstration class can be seen below.
As children participate in Young Rembrandts’ classes, they will learn how to draw and color one new image each week.
While in class, they will also gain these skills:
- Understand and draw basic shapes
- Follow directions
- Learn fundamental art techniques
- Color and complete their drawings
- Improved fine motor and handwriting skills
- Increase their self confidence and self esteem
Look deeper to see the dramatic results of just 30 minutes of drawing instruction.

"I observed a new teacher 2 weeks ago. She taught the Alien Faces cartoon lesson and the class was very excited and thought that the Aliens were fun to draw. Toward the end of class a second grade boy said,"This is the best day of my whole life!" A third grade girl said to him,"What about tomorrow?" The boy said,"Tomorrow won't be as good." It was a great class to observe and the teacher did an excellent job."
