Artyfactory "offers Free Art Lessons For All"
Artyfactory is a superb site for anyone interested in art, particularly for those interested in learning how to draw.
The site offers a useful feature using the mouse and moving it over an image to illustrate specific tips about drawing. For example, when learning about Drawing the Eye , you can move the mouse over the first image to see how the upper eyelid covers the top of the iris.
In addition to the various drawing tutorials, there is an Art Appreciation feature, a Color Theory section and a Portrait Painting in Acrylics section.

Jan Brett's website: free activities for kids
Jan Brett is a popular author/illustrator of children's books. She also has a wonderful website with loads of free activities, coloring pages, and projects that are fun and educational.
Her site really is a wonderful resource for parents and children. I think the pages showing how to draw a hedgehog , how to draw an armadillo, and how to draw a bear, are particularly appealing. The site isn't just for children!
