Welcome to Creative Kids 2010!
Kaitlin and I look forward to making art with each of you this year.
January Class Schedule
Jan 7th Printed Scarf -Students will experiment making and printing with our own stamps on fabric. Then we'll do a repetition design on a soft-knit fabric scarf.
Jan 14th Watercolor Flowers - We'll discuss wet-on-wet watercolor technique and how to prepare the paper for painting. Then we'll put that knowledge to work and lay down our colors. After I quick-dry the paper each student will pick out flower forms and draw them in with ink.
Jan 21st Fairy Mushrooms with a Secret - Everyone knows fairies are the guardians of secrets. And fairies love mushrooms. But did you know that fairies keep their secrets in the mushrooms? We'll paint fabric and cut it into circles which we'll then stitch into mushroom tops. These we'll attach to vintage wooden spools for the bottoms. The secret is hidden in a scroll of paper that is attached at one end and wrapped the body of the mushroom. (As with all projects, if students would like, they are always welcome to do more than one.)
Jan 28th Monotone Texture Painting - Students will choose one color and will use various tools to create texture with tempera paint on a large sheet of paper. We'll then recreate a reference photo using shapes cut from the paper. The object is to rely only on the textures instead of falling back on outlines and colors.
