We started with a little color theory playing with warm and cool colors and began with choosing three squares to create any design they wanted using warm colors......
For our next class, we'll be painting a background with water color resist clouds, gluing in the balloons and talking about perspective- how things that are farther away appear to be smaller while things that are closer seem bigger..... Also, they'll doing sun faces emphasizing eyes, nose & lips and finishing with "any-color-but-blue" backgrounds; a little project I like to call "What Color is the Sky in Your World"
It's so good to be teaching again, I've really missed it!
Cheers,
Stephanie

Love being able to see through the child's eye when it comes to art. What a wonderful way for you to bring out the artist in them Stephanie. You are such a blessing to those around you. SO happy that you are doing something you love so much.
Hugs!!
You are such a good teacher! (And brave!) The kids look like they are really enjoying themselves. Good for you for enriching their lives with art. I can see some creations I already like!
LOVE to see children allowed to 'play'. Thank heavens there's no more 'old school' colouring between the lines. Great work!!!
