Debra

MOM OF 4

ART IS NOW A TIME OF BONDING AND GROWING.

I use to dread art time, uncertain of what I was supposed to do. I put the baby down for a nap, and the older kids and I sit down for 40 minutes to create, talk and laugh together. Now art is a wonderful time of bonding and growing!

Thank you!!


Heather

HOMESCHOOL MOM OF 5

I use to think plants are boring! Now I am excited to do each lesson and hear something fascinating about plants, culture, and folk tales. I like the art lessons. They help me practice drawing and painting something different and new each time.

Plus, our lessons can be completed independently by your children, freeing up some of your valuable time.

Will the lessons coordinate with my chosen homeschool curriculum?

Absolutely! At True Hues Art, our lessons are designed to complement and reinforce core academic subjects like geography, biology, and history and more. Each course is integrated with subjects from popular homeschool curricula such as Apologia, The Good and the Beautiful, Shepherd Science, and Guest Hollow. This means your children will be learning art and strengthening their understanding and curiosity in essential subjects simultaneously—maximizing educational value without taking extra time out of your busy schedule.

I’m not confident in my own artistic abilities—how can I teach art?

You don’t need to be an artist to teach with True Hues Art! Our video lessons are designed to guide both you and your children step-by-step through each project. With straightforward instructions and printable resources, you’ll feel confident leading your children through each lesson, regardless of your own artistic background. Plus, our courses are designed for independent learning, so your children can follow along even without direct supervision.

Can't I Just Look Up Art Ideas on Pinterest?

While Pinterest is great for inspiration, it can also be a time-consuming rabbit hole—especially for a busy homeschool mom like you. At True Hues Art, we’ve done the heavy lifting for you. Our lessons are time-tested by thousands of children from both homeschool and charter school families, ensuring they are not only effective but also loved by kids who are passionate about art and those who are more hesitant.

Unlike Pinterest, where you’re left to piece together lessons, our video-based courses are comprehensive and designed to save you time and energy.

How are the lessons structured?

Our video-based courses are comprehensive and designed to save you time. Each lesson starts with fascinating facts and beautiful photography that capture your children’s attention right from the start. (That gives you 3 - 5 minutes to pull out the art supplies!)

We then walk them through the step-by-step drawing process, with a printable 'How to Draw' sheet available for nearly every project.

What sets True Hues Art apart is our commitment to holistic education. Our lessons don’t just stop at art; they include academic resources for further exploration, such as reading materials and library book lists that dive deeper into the concepts being taught. This means your children are not only creating art but also growing in confidence and developing a curiosity about core subjects like science and history—keeping the love for learning alive.

With True Hues Art, you’re not just getting ideas; you’re getting a complete, ready-to-use system that’s been crafted with love and expertise by Ms. Julie, so you don’t have to get lost on Pinterest or Instagram looking for project ideas. Instead, you can focus on what truly matters—enjoying your children as you create art together, or taking a well-deserved break while they create independently.
