Red! Orange! Yellow! Green! Blue! Purple! Join us as we
take a detailed look at the world of color through the eyes
of the Masters. Why did Matisse paint with such shocking
color? What is the meaning behind Picasso’s Rose and
Blue periods? Do you think Van Gogh used so much yellow
paint because it was his favorite? Daily talks about these
artists take place while we get our hands dirty with plenty
of mixing, blending, and changing of color. We also craft
colorful ceramic fish, elaborate feathered 3-D birds and
brightly painted rainbows. The week is completed by
making a color tree as tall as us from recycled materials.
Shhhh, what’s that you hear? There’s a rumble in the
jungle! In this workshop we explore the extraordinary
plants and animals of the rain forest. We take time to
craft unique artistic creations that find inspiration from
colorful birds of paradise, unusual tropical plants, and
wild jungle animals. We make a quirky toucan with lots of
bright feathers, a spotted leopard mask, and a giant rain
forest watercolor painting. Each day we take time to read
our favorite jungle stories and get our hands messy with
lots of paint, glue, and glitter!
