MEXICAN ARTS DAY ~ WEEK ONE

Mirror, mirror...


who is the fairest of them all?


The Summer Arts Camper Kids!


We celebrated our International Arts Day during our first week of Summer Arts Camp by creating hand painted Mexican mirrors and engraved tin.


Beginning with some black Sharpie markers, the children designed circular patterns and then painted their intricate designs with watercolors.


When the painting was complete, they engraved tin with patterns using ball point pens and then they colored the tin with Sharpie markers.


The result ~ beautiful Mexican mirrors.


Gorgeous works of art.  
Every single one unique.
