Good Day!  Friends, this class was part of a birthday party for a little girl, that favors Hello Kitty themes.  So, I came up with a Hello Kitty that was part-Princess, and part-Ballerina!  The boys (& girls) had the option to paint a Frog Prince, as well.  Additionally, the option to paint something of their own idea(s) was offered for those that wanted to paint something different. 

As you can see, this class included painters that are pre-teens, teens and their grand-pa!  This was another wonderful art class with birthday party combined!  Three generations were at this party, and there are a lot of parents and grandparents that were there, yet not on the images below.  They had a great time as well.  I certainly appreciated their assistance in distributing more paint, as the painters needed it.  Every child was a delight to work with and so were the parents and grand-parents. 

I've totally enjoyed demonstrating the paintings during the classes, and I am looking forward to doing so on an even greater level for the multi-generational classes, as well!  After the preliminaries have taken place, I can discern the moment students of each age begin to focus on what they're doing with paint and paint brushes, due to how quiet they become.  As they paint they appear to be discovering that they have the ability to make art, and that is always a wonderful experience to witness those moments of discovery!
