Draw your dog, cat with this Coquitlam school teacher

Kirk Deutschmann’s video is up on Art Focus Artists Association website until Nov. 25.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to draw your pet, a School District 43 teacher has some tips for beginners.

Kirk Deutschmann’s video is up on Art Focus Artists Association website until Nov. 25 as part of the Port Coquitlam group’s virtual outreach this fall, during the global pandemic.

A Maple Ridge resident and grade 4/5 teacher at Mundy Road elementary school in Coquitlam, Deutschmann shows his techniques on how to capture images of animals using pencil crayons.

Deutschmann is a self-taught artist who “accidentally discovered” coloured pencils about seven years ago; he is also now exploring pastels as a medium.
