DOODLE ARTS DAY ~ WEEK ONE

Each year on the first day of Summer Arts Camp we start off the week with a warm up doing Doodle Art.

{You can see some of last year's doodle creations ~ our Big Faces ~ above on our banner.}



With a brand new project for Summer Arts Camp and a little inspiration from us, the Camper Kids got busy and began doodling on dishes.






Using a collection of Sharpie markers in a kaleidoscope of colors the children each created their own unique dish designs.

 {Our very own Georgia Peach!}

Boys at work.

{Cinderella's castle.}

The collection was diverse ~ each artist somehow inspiring another in small ways.

{Rainbows of color, monograms, the American flag, puppy dogs, and kittens.}

{ this one! Future dinnerware designer, I think.}

When the Camper Kids were finished painting their plates with the pens, we baked them in the oven to set the ink and make it permanent.  {For the recipe, see below.}

The Camper Kids left their hand prints everywhere!

With a twist on traditional Mehndi hand prints, a few of the talented hands left these prints with us.




{I Art Camp!}

But this was my most favorite!

It was a great start to our first week of Summer Arts Camp 2015.  Get ready for more fabulous photographs and work by these Camper Kids.  We had a week packed with art projects we can't wait to share with you.

Doodle Dish Recipe

Clean porcelain plate with rubbing alcohol.
Let dry.
Doodle with Sharpie markers.
Let dry.
Place in pre-heated 250 degree oven for 45 minutes.

*Some other recipes you may find online will recommend 425 degrees for 20 minutes, but this totally faded my first design.  Slow and low is my recommendation for a perfect result.
