The kids in Early Release Wednesday class spent the afternoon making paper flowers and reading “Paper Flower Tree”. “Paper is the most challenging art material” - said one 6 year old. Who are you giving your flowers to? “Myself” said one eight year old. “What flowers are they designed from?” Asked a nine year old. “My flower has the scent of glue” said a 6 year old.
Monochromatic self-portraits made by artists in ADVANCED ART AFTERSCHOOL. These committed kids ages 9-13 are exploring portraits many ways learning proportion, shading, expression and technical skills. This project is done with colored pencils and they mastered what we call at the studio “butter blending”.

Slow & steady 🐢 in STUDIO CRAFT today! There are articles about today’s medical students not having strong fine motor and handiwork skills… not these kids! They’ve got skills! 🧶
Love is… hugging, kisses, being close, laughing, make art with friends, kids ages 3-5 at PAINT & PLAY.
WEEKEND ART ACTIVITY made their own animals today! Some have moving parts. Lots of trial and error problem solving, planning, and sharing ideas. Little sculpture projects are a great way to get kids working in 3D. Using a flat circle as a head by making it perpendicular to the body primes them for a deeper understanding of planes and three dimensional shapes. Little sculptures also help them become adept at attachments. In this project they learned to use brads. The other parts were attached with hot glue.
What is love? Close, connects. Bubbly. Spinning, full. Everything. Everywhere. ❤️ spiral art hearts made by 3-5 year olds. Idea inspired by @amymcreynolds 🙏
