Exploring Natural Textures & Prints with Ms. Jillian
- Recommended age: 4+
Discover the beauty, shapes and textures held within various fruits, vegetables, and other things found in nature! You'll learn how to dissect different food items and make prints by dipping your chosen items into paint and creating your own painting.
Did you enjoy making your prints? Go outside and find some new items from nature to create more prints with (ie leaves, shells, pine cones, sticks). If you have several pages of prints, consider binding your prints into a book. All you will need is a hole punch and some string.
*Materials are not included in registration fee. Although it is encouraged, suggested materials are not required to participate. Adult supervision may be required.
