We will draw and paint a lively scene from the jungle with a tiger, toucan, tree leaves and flowers! The jungle is full of gorgeous colors, shapes, and lines. After brief introductions and a review of our supplies, we will begin our tropical painting!

We will look at images of the jungle and talk about what we see. We may share some facts about tigers or toucans too! 

We will draw our tiger, toucan, and tree leaves with a combination of pencil, crayon, and permanent marker.  This will help us achieve an effective technique for our picture. Then we will begin to add watercolors. I will lead artists step-by-step through the entire process and everyone will be able to see it all from my overhead art cam. 

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and share as we go.

Although everyone will be painting the same subject, it is always exciting to see everyone’s compositions, and how they bring all of the colors and shapes together!
