Art Exploration

• Drawing: Drawing art offerings include Nature Journal (sketchbook making by using observations made in nature) and Sip and Sketch (a time to create a sketchbook with prompts provided). The materials used are paper, colored pencils and colored markers. Both offerings are best suited for an inside setting but can be adapted to accommodate an outside setting. These activities last 1.5 hours long and result in a completed sketchbook.
• Painting: Painting art offerings include The Art of Nature (all nature inspired acrylic painting on canvas unless otherwise specified by client), Wine and Paint, Brushes and Bellinis, Color Stories (an activity that teaches how to mix favorite colors and learn the origin story behind each color). Both offerings are best suited for an inside setting. These activities last 2 hours long and will result in a finished painting on canvas using acrylic paints. Food and Beverages are not included.
• ^Pyrography: Pyrography is basically, when the term is translated, fire writing. It is also known as wood burning. In this case, there are two ways to experience pyrography as a safe and exciting art activity. One is Painting with Fire; an activity that uses a medium that can be applied to wood or paper to create an image. When heat is applied, the image appears burnt in. Painting with Fire can be offered in an indoor or outdoor setting and may or may not need access to electricity. The second pyrography offering is Drawing with Fire; an activity using heated tools to draw on a small piece of prepared wood.
