Sneak Peek Post for {Camp heARTful} Van Gogh

Hope you are gearing up for 

Summer Art Camp!

 June 18th-22nd at The Apprentice Art Studio.

 Here is a sneak peek, a sampling, of what we will be doing. Think fields of golden wheat, Cypress trees, sunflowers, texture, sketching, mark making, collaging, and of course painting even a bit of a surprise!  

 “Drawing is the root of everything.”
June 3, 1881 Vincent Van Gogh, from a letter to Theo

 Waiting for you with paint in my hair and Jesus in my heart!

Camp #3 Camp Creation

In the Beginning...

Camp Creation begins Aug. 6th- 10th. The focus of this amazing camp will be the Creation Story. How the God of the Universe spoke into existence everything we see, hear, feel, taste, and smell. Isn't is cool that He gave us our senses so that we can take it all in and enjoy it? Campers will look to nature for inspiration, as well as, the Bible.

I have been wanting to do this camp for a while now and can't wait! Being a maker of beauty is Biblical!   Each day we will focus on a day of creation and create something that will represent that day. This is a fun way to celebrate, explore and think about how miraculous and creative all of life really is.

Day 1 Let there be Light

Day 2 Sky and Water

Day 3 Sun Moon and Stars

Day 4 Land and Sea

 

Day 5 Sea Life and Birds of the Air

Day 6 Animals and Mankind

and then God rested on the seventh day! "And God saw all that He had made and it was very good." Gen. 1:31

I hope you will join us for Camp Creation!On-line registration is open for this camp HERE

Camp #2 Paths and Purpose

Do you enjoy being in nature? How about climbing to high vistas and looking out from the top? What about looking at the stars, while you enjoy the warmth and light of a campfire? 

I think that living as a follower of Christ can be like this, with feelings of excitement, elation, or contentment. However, it can also be difficult in the culture today, especially for our kids. Life can feel rigorous, painful, confusing too; are we on the right track? I feel lost.

What if we could have a road map to help us out or a compass that always pointed true?

Wouldn't it be so much easier to follow a path that is well marked with signs? 

At Camp heArtful Camp #2 Paths and Purpose we will explore these ideas and  see that we actually do have signs, maps, and a compass available to us. Using nature and the great outdoors as our theme we take a closer look at our purpose as followers of Christ and leaders along the Pathway.

Hope you'll join us for this journey at 

Camp heARTful #2

Camp Apprentice Atlelier- Van Gogh

My first Master Study for Kids is during Apprentice Atelier at Camp heARTful this summer! And it  is all about Vincent Van Gogh and his impact on the art world. Students will create in Van Gogh style. Campers will explore with his techniques using pen and ink sketches before taking paint to canvas.

Students will experiment with repeating lines and patterns which is so recognizable in

 Van Gogh's work.

Campers will also get to use watercolor, practice mark making and do a fun 3-D project to celebrate Vincent and end our week. 

Apprentice Atelier- Van Gogh begins June 18th-22nd

Space is limited so sign up early. Payment secures your spot.

  CAMP DESCRIPTIONS:

NEW! The Apprentice Atelier!
This is a new series in the studio. So if you have have come to art camp before this might just be what you are looking for.  In this camp, kids will study the life of an amazing Master Artist. Campers will complete projects centered around the artists life, create art the way the artist might have done, using similar tools and mediums. There is no better way to understand an artist than to create like them.
AND there is no better way to start this series than with one of my favorite artists, Van Gogh.

NEW! Paths and Purpose
What path are you on? Do you have a map? Where will your journey take you? In this camp kids will explore who they are in Christ and complete several projects having to do with identity and purpose. I want each camper to understand that they are able to re-orient their lives with the right tools and our Big God! Good Stuff!

NEW! Camp Creation!
I have been wanting to do this camp for a while now and can't wait! Campers will look to nature for inspiration, as well as, the Creation story. Being a maker of beauty is Biblical! Projects will center around the days of creation. "And God saw all that He had made and it was very good." Gen. 1:31

The Apprentice Art Studio ~Session 1 Camp heARTful

Getting Camp heARTful Session II ready for tomorrow, but in the mean time, I wanted to post some pretty fun pictures of the girls and their beautiful projects. Yes can you believe it I had all girls in the first session, which made it quite special. 

Here is what the students said this week:

                 " I love this art camp" 

      

                                            "I like this art class better than other art classes I have taken"  

             "I want to do the next session too!"  

                               "Mrs. Wombacher you are so much fun!"

I must admit we had a great time together learning, sharing, growing and creating. We all had happy hearts! Loved every second, dear girls! Thanks Joanna, Leah, Julie, Alexis, Elizabeth and Rachel, you all are amazing girls
