Ever meet a Strongman Merman?!

Instructions:
Draw Merman using simple shapes. Always start at the head and work your way down! Outline drawing in sharpie or black crayon. Color in shirt, pebbles, and seaweed with oil pastels. Paint merman with tan paint and his tail with green paint. Use the brown paint for sand and blue for the water background. Super easy and so cute!!

Bears on Parade!

I love the 4th of July! Fireworks, Cook-Outs, Parades, all of it! Here's a fun "Bears on Stilts" project that draws inspiration from the holiday. I did this project with my pre-k class but would work for older kids too!

Materials:

Bear Printout
Heavy Drawing Paper or Cardstock (cardstock can be found at any office supply store, it's a heavier weight than computer paper but reasonably inexpensive)
Bristol
Pencils
Black Sharpie (optional, helps hold onto drawing details)
Oil Pastels
Grey Acrylic Paint, watered down to watercolor consistency
Purple Acrylic Paint, watered down to watercolor consistency
Paintbrushes
Glitter (optional, for fireworks)
Scrap paper or craft paper
Scissors
Glue

Step One:
Draw bear in pencil on cardstock and outline in Sharpie. Color hat and collar with oil pastel. I like bright colored stripes best! Paint bear with grey acrylic (watered down). Set aside to dry or for faster drying time, dry with hairdryer.
Step Two:
Draw grass with green oil pastel along bottom of Bristol. Paint background with purple acrylic (watered down).
Step Three:
Cut two long strips out of brightly colored or printed scrap paper and glue long ways to background for tall legs. Cut out bear and glue atop of the legs. Draw fireworks in glue and add glitter!

Fun in the Summer Sun!!

Summertime is here and for us that means summer camp! We have camps at both studios (Savannah & Pooler) this year and we're just loving all the little artists we get to work with!! Summer camp is a fun time where we get a chance to work with a lot of kids at once, often with a wide range of ages and interests. Keeping projects fresh and interesting is a challenge we are happy to accept. Here are some of  my favorite projects and pics from camp so far!

Working Together! Each week we do at least one mural or collaborative work of art! Murals are a wonderful way to learn to work together and share ideas. Creating cardboard cities has been a camp favorite this year. Kids love art you can also play with.

Fixin Up the Studio!!!

We spent the last month renovating our Pooler studio! When we took over the space it was a mess! We cleaned, painted and got the studio up and running but had to wait to fully renovate. Most challenging was painting the dark brown ceiling white, but we got it done and we're thrilled with how much brighter our studio space has become. To celebrate we've planned a series of fun, free events! Check out pics of our  new studio and our upcoming events!!
