Summary: Do you have a teen who is interested in art? Or are you looking for a frugal way to help them do a fine arts elective? College bound teens usually have that required as part of their college entrance requirements. Here is a fun way to get that done. #homeschoolhighschool #highschoolelectives #highschoolart #frugalhighschoolcurriculum
You ARE An Artist, a small company owned by a homeschooler, offers many video art courses. You should see all the choices!!
It is a great way to expand your teen's art skills, using chalk art medium. This is a company owned by a homeschooling mom of 5. How did she ever find time to create these lovely courses?
Do you have a teen who is interested in exploring their skills in art? Or is your teen looking for a fun way to do their fine arts elective this year? How about doing a video based Art course, taught by a master artist?

One of our favorites is called Art Techniques. It will take your teen step by step, through a tour of techniques with Master Artists, from Impressionism to Modernism.
Many art courses require a long list of art supplies, and that can be prohibitive for many homeschoolers, on a budget, like we were. For You ARE An Artist - Art Techniques all that is needed is a set of chalk pastels and construction paper, no complicated list of art supplies to try to find.
How to Make It into a High School Elective
How to Make It into a High School Elective
One way is to use Art Techniques as a part of an Art History course, or an Introduction to Art course. It would add a lot to your teen's art history studies.
Tricia offers an easy way to create a complete high school elective in art.
To make a full year homeschool high school art credit, we recommend adding their You Are an Artist Clubhouse Membership.
This would give your teen access to over $2,000 worth of art lessons, including their I Drew It I Knew It History series and SO much more. This is a frugal way to do a quality art elective, for only $20.00 a month, for $2,000 dollars of video based art lessons.
This will give your art student access to:
- All access to all the art lessons, including ones on famous artists like Vermeer, Warhol, Grandma Moses, Degas...
- Mixing and matching art lessons to relate to other areas of your teen's studies, eg, history, geography, science.
- A special membership community
- Easy access to new art lessons

We loved the Bird Chalk Pastels Art Course that would go along well with your teen's high school science studies.
To make it into a high school elective, 70 to 90 hours of doing these lessons equals a half credit, which is all that is usually required for their fine arts credit.
Doing 140 to 180 hours of work, and play with these lessons will give them a full year credit in high school art.
