This class is perfect for any artist that loves ice cream! Have you ever combined different art mediums to create a beautiful work of art? It's one of my favorite things to do. In this class we will explore the wonderful world of mixed media while creating a gigantic ice cream cone. We begin by creating an outline of our ice cream cones. Learners will be given easy to follow, step-by-step directions. We will discuss our favorite ice cream flavors throughout the lesson. Learners will use crayons, markers, watercolor paints, and a Sharpie marker to create their beautiful masterpiece. Learners will be shown a variety of watercolor techniques: wet-on-dry, layering, and wax-resist. At then end of the lesson, learners may present their ice cream cones to the class. I cannot wait to see the ice cream cone that you create. The benefits of creating mixed media art: *Learners can experiment with different art mediums & learn how to take creative risks. *Mixing art mediums boosts decision-making skills and self-confidence. *Learners can develop their unique style. *Mixing art mediums provides an opportunity for self-expression. *Learners can invent new ways of thinking, which extends beyond the art classroom. 👉My classes will not be cancelled due to low enrollment.
