You’ll often find that once something has been brought to your attention, you’ll start to see it everywhere. Try it once you’ve read this; look out for green cars and before you know it, you’ll be counting them out loud.
For this camp we’ll be harnessing the power of manifestation and searching for tiny faces in unexpected places. After heading out into the community to see what we can find in nature's spaces, we’ll use the work of a local artist as inspiration to create our own pine cone and oyster shell characters. Students will use small face moulds to guide them through crafting individual features from Sculpey clay; the biggest emphasis will of course be placed on bringing out their personalities through colour and accessories. With faces nestled in the crook of a pearlescent oyster or between scales of a pine cone, this is an incredible craft that we know children will be excited about from the moment they step through the door.
We’ll round out the week by inviting the artist who inspired the creation of this camp to talk through her process, inspiration and future passion projects via zoom. Not only will students go home with unique works of art, but pockets full of creative vision.
