Camping Art Mini-Camp Day 3

Our final day of our Camping themed art camp!  In addition to painting rocks, we made some kindness rocks.  We then ventured out into Cumberland Park and hid them for people to find.  We hope it makes someone's day and brings a smile to their face when they discover one of these rocks!





While we were outdoors, we found something in nature that we wanted to paint:  a turtle, a leaf, a "green bean plant" (Ha, we didn't know what else to call it!).  We learned how to use oil pastels and watercolors together to create our paintings.

  

Our final project of this Camping themed art camp was our pinecone sculptures... an instant favorite.  First, we learned how to mix colors using the 3 primary colors (red, blue, and yellow) along with black or white to create the colors we wanted.  We then used those colors to add color to our pinecones.  We twisted some wire to the top and strung some beads, added a loop at the top and some washi tape.  Now, where to hang them?

  

  

It was a fantastic end to our camp!  Hope to see you at our next one!

Our final art mini-camp of the summer will be July 30 - Aug. 1st.  It will be an OUTER SPACE theme and it's gonna be out of this world.  REGISTER now to get your kids signed up... space is limited.
