Mixed Media Orca Collages

Well, the award for the biggest slacker in art teacher blogging goes to........yup, that would be me. Is there anyone out there anymore? I didn't mean to stay away for so long. I have been doing some posting on Facebook and Instagram. My Generation X self is still grappling with so much social media I suppose. I know....excuses, excuses. 😀

This summer I have 3 different themed art classes. June: Draw, Paint, Clay Collage, July: Animals and Birds, and August: Unique Material Art Lab. This month has been all about playing with different media. I like to inject an extra sense of play in my summer classes. I find the kids really appreciate the encouragment to just explore and play with media and not worry about the end product. I suppose I may be speaking to my own inner artist as well.
