Seeking some creative inspiration and play for your 7-12 year olds? Allow professional mixed media artist, Jordan Kim, guide your child(ren) through a 3-part series on Mondays, Oct. 12, 19, and 26, from 3:30-4:30pm PST. The class will be offered *live* (not pre-recorded) online using the Zoom platform. Jordan is a teaching artist with Arts in Education of the Gorge and frequently teaches students ranging from 5-13 years old through the public schools.
In this 3-part series, Jordan will guide your 7-12 year olds as we explore the work of Japanese contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama through a dot pumpkin project emulating her dimensional, plump and somewhat psychodelic pumpkins.
To do this project, your child will need the following supplies:
- Heavy weight colored paper in two contrasting colors (ie: yellow and purple, or orange and blue) 9"x12"
- Black permanent markers in varying sizes - Sharpies with a fine tip and ultra fine tip would work great
- Pencil
- A stencil with a large pattern on it (any simple repeat pattern will do)
- Black acrylic paint
- Sponge brush or roller
If you need any of these items and live in the Gorge area, Tokki Art Supply can help you get these supplies depending on availability. If this is not an option, contact me and I will work with you to come up with alternative supplies that will work.
Once you register, you will be sent a secure link and password that you can use to log your child into the class on any device (phone, computer or tablet) at the scheduled class time. You can choose to allow your child to share his/her screen or not. Jordan will give *live* instruction. (*Note that this is not a pre-recorded class!) If you opt to allow screen sharing, children can get personal assistance with their projects. This is not a requirement for the course.
Cost is $50 for the 3-part series. **Please note: Class fee is per household of up to 3 children. If registering for more than 3 children in the same household, I ask that you please pay another registration fee.*
