All Drew's boxes are intended for ages 9 and up. That means that a 9 year old and a 13 year old, with differing skills, can complete the lessons together successfully, and still, both be challenged in their own ways.
You get 4 or more art class lessons with engaging and comprehensive videos that you can pause or rewatch at any point.

Every box comes with:

- a list of the vocabulary and definitions used in the videos, an art history-related activity (whether a written assignment, a game, or “art history for thought”)
- a list of the supplies in the box, and sometimes supportive Drew's apps for the student to use hand in hand with the lessons
- ALL SUPPLIES ARE INCLUDED, so your child can get the art class experience without leaving the comfort of your home
- booklet with the links to lesson videos


ABOUT THIS BOX:

This art box includes 4 video lessons about embossing and 1 video lesson about radials. Embossing is the art of creating a raised design from a flat surface and radials are designs that spread out from the center.

In lesson 1, students learn about some of the fundamental concepts of radials such as rotational and reflective symmetry, asymmetry, and balance. Students also learn how to use positive and negative space as well as implied shapes to add variety to their work.

In lesson 2, students learn about and practice the different stages of working with copper including embossing, debossing, and refining. The purpose of the lesson is to experiment with and understand how the metal can bend and stretch. Once students are familiarized with the tools, hand movements, and process, they can move onto creating their final pieces.

In lesson 3, students transfer 3 of their radial designs from lesson 1 onto 3 sheets of copper and use the embossing techniques to carefully press into the copper.

Finally, the bonus lesson is about designing a unique work of your choice, embossing on colored foil aluminum, and sanding down the surface to reveal a silver aluminum underneath. Sanding can give beautiful coloring to an embossing.
