It was All About Dad in our Saturday Open Studio class this morning! Students created oil and chalk pastel portraits of their Dads in the elongated style of Amedeo Modigliani, & composted cute little heartfelt notes for Daddy.  Happy Fathers Day!

One afternoon in late summer 2010 a pretty, vibrant mother with long dark hair will come breezing in to the studio to buy the largest quantity of art classes available.

The younger kids created decoupage collage portraits of their Dads in Open Studio today! It was amusing to listen to them banter back & forth about their Dads as they deliberated one eyebrow or two…

This Valentine’s Day craft takes all the pressure off of you, and puts it squarely on the shoulders of your beloved!
