Art...still fun (Day 2)

Day 2

Caleb's watercolor... 

Woodpecker Man

Thoughts from the artist..."Why, Mama? Why Woodpecker Man? Because that owl is huge; that owl is a dad so it is definitely a woodpecker man. First, I painted the orange beaks. Then I did the yellow bodies. Then I did the eye's pink. And then I painted the blue background after I put a little of the purple in the background. Then I went to wash my hands. And I did not put those black lines on there. No person did; I didn't see any person put those black lines on my picture. Yeah, they came on there by theirself. I didn't do it. Today art was fun and easy. It was more fun today and not hard. They say stay in the lines but it's okay if you get out. Tomorrow I am going to paint a 'hu-gungus' picture. Mrs. Belinda said it was going to be almost as byg as your whole body!"


Dean's painting...

Per Dean, his class did not get to finish the
rooster's eyes or paint the background. So
no one brought their picture home. However,
he had quite a lot to say about his work.

Thoughts from the artist...“I didn't do a Sharpie on the lines how Mrs. Belinda colored it. So then I painted the body yellow.  Then I did the feathers on the back after I did all of the orange.  The beak was orange; the wings were orange; and the feet were orange.  Then I did the back of the feathers. I mixed in red and was supposed to do one feather that way but I did two accidentally.  One I did pink probably; it was actually purple. Then I painted some other colors but I forgot what they were.  Then I did the bottom of the beak red and the comb red.  Then I painted the face light blue.  Art camp today was a little bit hard but it was still easy for me but not as easy as 'easy peasy lemon squeezy'.”

I don't know about you but after that description Dean gave I am anxiously awaiting tomorrow's camp so I can see his finished masterpiece.
