FALL 2014 WORKSHOPS SCHEDULE

Welcome back to school! I hope you are all off to a great start. We had one going off to 2nd grade and one going off to kindergarten. Thankfully, transition for both of them has been quite easy so far. The thing that was the hardest to figure out with my workshops this year is SOCCER!!! Oh my word, it's a new year of schedules and games for all of us with both boys playing. We are excited, but believe me when I say, that getting this schedule of workshops together was quite a puzzle. Really! I am really looking forward to seeing both new and familiar faces in my studio again. As always, please email me or call me if you have any questions (contact info. is down at the bottom):

Blue Apple Studios FALL 2014 SCHEDULE
Art house for kids

SEPTEMBER
Friday 9.19: APPLES APPLES APPLES 3:30-5:30
All about apples! Red ones, green ones, yellow ones and maybe some blue ones? Artists will be working with tempera paint and pastels and watercolor to create 2 beautiful paintings on fine watercolor paper. A perfect kickoff for fall.
$50.
Saturday 9.27: FALL CARDS 10am-1pm
Made much like our Christmas cards workshop, we will be making 10 cards that you will not want to give away! This time our theme is all things fall: think sunflowers, fruit, birds, pumpkins and more. Artists will be working with watercolor, pastel, and sharpie. Some of the cards will have glitter and fabric added to them. They become like 10 small masterpieces when finished.
$75.
Sat. & Sun. 9.27/28: ANDY WARHOL INSPIRED CANVAS 1pm-3pm
This workshop was such a hit in the past, we’re bringing it back. Warhol was great at presenting the same image over and over but with a different color background or different color subject each time. It’s the same idea with this project, but we get to use fabric, paint, canvas and more. Artists will pick a simple subject like an animal or flower and organize them repetitively on different color backgrounds. Each artist comes away with 4 canvases.
$125

Friday 10.10: BATS, CATS AND PUMPKINS 3:30-5:30pm

Saturday 10.18: FALL FLOWERS 1pm-4pm

NOVEMBER
Saturday 11.8: CHARLEY HARPER INSPIRED CANVAS 10-1pm
