This class is the camp version of my Multi-Day Acrylic Holiday Set: Create 4 Fun Art Acrylic Paintings! (Ages 5-8) In this 4-class camp, students will be learning some of the basics of acrylic painting, and painting a different winter/holiday themed painting each class! In this easy, no-experience-needed class, I will be painting right along with learners to show them the techniques and walk you step by step through the acrylic painting process. Learners will have the opportunity to express their creativity through acrylic painting! Students will need acrylic paint, brushes, and canvases for this class.

Learning Goals
My mission for all of my classes is that every learner has the opportunity to be creative. I believe creativity is so important, and I want to give students the chance to express themselves in a safe and comfortable environment. The goal is for each student in this particular class to learn about acrylic techniques and brushes to gain the confidence to create their own amazing artwork at home.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Acrylic paints can be hard to get off of furniture and out of clothing. Please make sure students have a space to work that is ok to get a bit messy. I recommend wearing old clothes that you won't mind if they get a little paint on them. Acrylic does come off of hair and skin with just a little soap and water.
Supply List
Learners will need a couple of supplies for painting. If you already have some supplies feel free to use what you have! You WILL need paints, brushes, and something to paint on to complete this class. A set of paints is nice to have but not required. A set with larger tubes is great if you are doing multiple classes. I use white, black, blue, red, yellow, green, and purple paints to complete all of my paintings. I will be sending out a message in the classroom with specific colors used for each class. On most class days learners will have the option to choose their own colors. A set of brushes is also a great idea to experiment and learn about different brush sizes and shapes! The brush set linked, is my favorite sizes and shapes. You might already have some at home! Canvas, Canvas Board, or Canvas Paper Acrylic Paint Set or Paint Colors in - white, black, blue, red, yellow, green, purple, and brown. Brush Set - https://amzn.to/2XOHuim Paper Plate (or something to use as a paint pallet) Pencil Eraser Cup of Water Paper Towels If you would like or need to purchase new supplies, most supplies can be bought easily from Amazon, your local grocery store, or an art store. Please let me know if you have any questions about supplies, I'm happy to help!
