KID'S ART NOVEMBER 8!



I am looking forward to teaching a 5 week session at Steere Farm Elementary in Harrisville, RI starting Wednesday November 8! I'll be introducing new techniques and materials. In my search for great art supplies I found some beautiful oil pastel colors and interesting speckled drawing paper. Sometimes the materials inspire my lessons and things just take off from there. Other times it might be a painting or an artist that stirs my imagination and opens up the creative experience to new possibilities.  So we'll be drawing animals, both real and imaginary, painting landscapes and learning about color and design. Hope you can join us!

Please let me know soon if your child would like to join the class. It is sponsored by Burrillville Parks and Recreation and as always it is open to kids who live in other towns also.
