MR.E: ART CONSULTANT

Before Christmas I received an e-mail from someone inquiring if I did art consulting.  I had never done such a thing formally, but found the idea interesting enough to pursue it.  The person reaching out to me was with a Christian Publishing Company here in Nashville, and had been following my blog for some time.  She wanted me to come in & lead a workshop with the editors of their elementary curriculum to help inspire/give new ideas for their Sunday School material & VBS.  

They sent me a copy of their winter curriculum to allow me to see what they were presently doing for "art projects".  This gave me direction on things I could share with them to maybe bump it up a little, but still be appropriate for a Sunday School class room & time frame.  

I came into a very formal business meeting type space...but it was soon full of laughter & bright colors!


They loved the tie dying with sharpies & rubbing alcohol!!!


Styrofoam Print Making w/ Marker

Crayon & Tissue Paper

Weaving

Illustrated Text W/ Different Watercolor Techniques

We also did Model Magic, Shrinky Dink Type Stuff, Construction Paper Crayons...and a whole lot more!  They loved it, and said they wished they could do it more often!! Maybe they'll have me back?!?!  :) Lets Hope!!!

Wilson County Workshop


Lebanon High School (new building...1st school year open)





The group wasn't huge, but we had a whole lot of fun!!!!  There were teachers and students from one elementary school & three high schools in Wilson County.  We had a great morning of art making.  
I did a mixed media lesson with the theme of The Elements. 
I'm use to working with elementary age...and teachers, but the high schools are not my norm population.  I LOVED 'EM!!!! They were so much fun!
 Below you'll see the works created by those in attendance.
