JOLLY JELLYFISH & SQUISHY SPONGE SEA URCHINS

It's beach time!

We brought the ocean to us again this June at Summer Arts Camp.

Last year Ocean Arts Day was such a splash when we made papier maché octopuses from plastic bottles, that we had to create another squirmy sea creature this year.

Whimsical papier maché jellyfish, made from tiny plastic bowls, tissue paper, sea shells, google eyes, and ribbons were swimming all around us!

Silly jelly faces and expressions filled our aquarium.

Jellyfish were squirming and squishy sponge sea urchins began to fly!

{At the end of the day, the Camper Kids made squishy spongy sea urchins, soaked them in a bucket of ice cold water, and threw them at Matthew!}

A perfect way to cool off!

Ocean Arts Day was a blast!

FABULOUS FACES!

The Fabulous Faces 
of Summer Arts Camp 2017!

Every year on our first day of Summer Arts Camp we celebrate our beautiful selves.

We call it DOODLE ARTS DAY.

And, the first doodle we do is our "selfie!"

We sketch an abstract ~ modern arts style ~ drawing of ourselves with a black Sharpie marker.  

Then we paint it with vivid watercolors.

And we see what happens.

Some of these silly Camper Kids got carried away and painted their pets...and other sweet creatures.

Every face {and creature} and every child unique.

Their art continues to amaze us.

Expressions that made us laugh.
In a very good way, of course.

We love this first day of Summer Arts Camp, as it allows us to really see how each child expresses his or her self. 

Some of these fantastic Camper Kids, even went further and made selfies using just Sharpies.

We thought that they all were GREAT!

This is our fifth and fabulous year of Summer Arts Camp.  It was wonderful to have so many of the Camper Kids return and we so enjoyed meeting new creative souls.

Until next time!

CUT IT OUT!

It's as simple as 
black and white.

Guss says that 
Summer Arts Camp 
is here!

Our first week of camp begins in just two days and we are thrilled to have some of our veteran Camper Kids join us again and excited to meet our new friends this summer.

Inspired by Henri Matisse's paper cutouts, here's a peek at one of the projects we will be creating at Summer Arts Camp 2017 during our BLACK & WHITE ARTS DAY!

See you soon!
