Original Books


Back in October, the girls wrote their own books about the artwork that they have done this year. 

Crazy Cats

The girls were inspired by an artist at Arts in the Heart of Augusta last September. They painted with acrylics on a stretched canvas.  Great backgrounds, too!  
 
   Aren't these crazy cats cute??

Collage...Decoupage...

With an American Girl theme, Cameron made this collage:




 Marcella decided to decoupage a box for her treasures. 




Then, both girls decided that these would make great wall art for their American Girls' bedrooms.

 

Elements of Art


The girls explored line, space, shapes, and color combinations with these acrylic creations.

Painting Wall Art

These wooden peace signs came from Big Lots.  The girls used acrylics and puff paint to make them pop!

COOL PEACE!

Underwater Watercolors

Cameron composes her underwater scene.  Fish, a crab, some coral, some rocks, a starfish, seaweed, and a few bubbles.






La-Li helps Marcella with her composition.









Marcella uses masking fluid to save some highlights on her bubbles.
Marcella's completed work. What pretty coral!




Cameron's work dries before we frame it.  Notice that cute little crab.
