Our first S.P.L.A.T. Club meeting was so fun! I hope your kids enjoyed it as much as my boys and I did. I love how many different ages came. It kept me on my toes!
The children did a wonderful job creating still life pictures. I could tell they were applying the techniques of line and tone we learned about. We have some real talent here! Some art was left here and did not have names on them so I will keep those in a folder.
Next week we will be using pastels. "Pastel is an art medium in the form of a stick, consisting of pure powdered pigment and a binder." - Wikipedia. When these pieces are complete, we will be presenting them to elderly friends at a nearby home. Because of liability issues, parents will need to drive their own kids and we will meet up as soon as we all get there. If you cannot make it I can deliver it for you. However, part of the fun is seeing their faces light up when youth come to visit so hopefully you can make it. I will have more information on the location etc. soon.
Also, I please give us feedback. Comment or email me if you have ideas on how we can make the club better. Thank you so much!
I loved it! At first I wast sure they were going to be into the directed part of the lesson. But each one ate it up. THANK YOU! We look forward to next week.
