KIDS ART CAMP 2011 ~ IN SCARBOROUGH
summer..play in the pool!
The center of attention on the table? This little guy...a cute snail
YOGA TIME: a moment each day to center & rest on a busy day.
Partner yoga makes it fun
and getting that extra stretch...
savasana ..relaxation
..What is happening here?
+ a creative mind ... make this delicious painting
Or this!....
A young visitor to art camp, grandson Oliver...
not quite old enough to play with these!
CREATING PAINTINGS A LA MONDRIAN...
The older kids got very precise ....
after a couple of days ....look at the funky results!
Even a young 4yr old visitor from Sri Lanka got right into it!
And this one is done by our 5 year old grand-daughter Alexia..
notice how she purposely used the tape overlapping the lines to create her design
This design took new turn; angled lines
And for the most senior student...black lines for him:
a very detailed process & his self-expression
SUMMER TIME = POOL TIME!
And for dessert? Red Currents, Strawberries and Ice-cream
OFF TO THE ART GALLERY OF ONTARIO
~climbing Henry Moore's bronze work, Two Large Forms (1966-69)
The children make themselves right at home....
Dashrin's favourite Pollock painting
A Room full of Mark Rothko paintings.
The girls get busy interpreting.
Dashrin takes in the contemplative space.
Love those letters :-)
Taking the subway is part of the adventure!
Another Day:
Painting on stretched wet watercolor paper ~ letting loose outside!
SCULPTURE; How to use up an old surf board
PRINTMAKING; on pink styrofoam
The prints went through changes- carved with kitchen tools and chisel set
each change printed in a different color...all in Chinese rice paper
A pie and pizza crust cutter + cookie cutters = gorgeous image!
GETTING CONNECTED TO NATURE;
The children took over the camera and focused on landscape photographs
These are just a few
Wild drawings unleashed onto the park bridges..
Games in chalk
WELL-USED CHALK PAILS
photos looking up into the sky...and looking down close to the ground
..
a candy stick being picked apart by the ants.
YAHOO! The playground..the big kids had it all to themselves that day :-)
Time get home for the next fun art project...
SILKSCREENING;
I got past the concern about the mess and technology ~
and had a blast with these kids-using leaves and other found objects
LEAF MAGIC!!
I love the exciting new ideas that come up from these young minds!
String taped down to make a spider's web...
time to buy a print drying rack!
IT'S SHOW TIME..LAST DAY OF ART CAMP!
We sent invitations out to the neighbors
and they came!
