GARDEN ARTS

It's already been three weeks since our last Camper Kid packed up and left our second week of Summer Arts Camp...


...and it's about time I share some of the creations the kids made.


One of our themed art days was Mother Nature's Art and Garden Art Day.  A project that day was Garden Creatures so in between the rain showers we all took a hike in our woods and through our gardens...


 ...collected pine cones, pods, twigs...


...leaves, seeds, and flower petals...


...and created a family of Garden Creatures!


Each Camper Kid made a Woodland Creature, 


a Green Guy, and


a Garden Flower Fairy.  Then I made a photograph of each and printed them out for each of them to add to their portfolio.


These shown above are just a few darling ones.

I am happy to tell you that some of the Camper Kids have e-mailed me recently with photographs of creatures that they have made after Summer Arts Camp while on their summer vacations!  

We have just returned from our vacation at the sea shore and my assistant Matthew and I have a new collection of Beach Buddies we made with sea shells we found on the beach.  {We'll share with you soon!}

Stay tuned for more glimpses of week two's creations.
