There is never a dull moment at camp...
Today we were so fortunate to have local Artisit Joanne Murman come to camp and teach us about the difference between warm and cool colors. We put this knowledge to the test by drawing Vincent Van Gogh Sunflowers with warm colors only.



Before the painting begins, a very important step is to first draw out the image in pencil. We learned a few new drawing techniques such as overlapping and using unexpected shapes. The kids did a great job following the directions!



For cool colors, Joanne showed the campers a photo of Van Gogh's Iris's. Above Colleen shows off her gorgeous iris, which she made by painting with only cool colors.


Joanne is so talented an she sure knows a lot about art. It was so fun having her at camp, good thing she will be coming back every week!
