Rainbow Art Camp: Watercolor Painting/Mixed Media for Beginners (3 Days)
What's included
3 live meetings
2 in-class hoursClass Experience
This three day art camp is for young learners that love rainbows! We will be combining crayons, markers and watercolor paints to create three amazing artworks. My goal is to help your young artist become more confident using a variety of art mediums. I allow plenty of room for learners to make their own creative decisions, this is what builds their confidence as artists. Learners will first be guided through an easy to follow, step-by-step drawing. To ensure that each learner is keeping up, I check in with everyone several times throughout the lesson. I welcome learners to ask questions at any time, and I'm always happy to help. I also provide a demonstration using a variety of art materials. Artists will be given an opportunity to share their ideas and their beautiful artworks in the classroom. I prefer small groups, so this class will not exceed 6 learners. Please send me a message if you have any questions. I hope to see your young artist in this exciting rainbow art camp! The benefits of creating mixed media art: 🔸Learners learn to 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 own individual style. 🔸Mixing art mediums provides an opportunity for self-expression. 🔸Learners can invent new ways of thinking, which extends beyond the art classroom.
