A NEW Youth Art Class with Artist Sue Marrazzo

Mary with her Mixed Media/Collage
This past Monday night I had a new Youth ART CLASS start. The lesson was on Pablo Picasso, and how his art changed throughout his life. We looked at the different periods of his ART. 
It stopped on his Collage and Mixed Media ART WORK. I did a demo and then the class started their work. The students chose their collage papers, paints and we started on the blank canvas. By the end of class all were done and unique. In the pictures in this post are two of my students, and their sister. 
They did a GREAT JOB on their Mixed Media/Collage Art Piece...Take a look!

Mary and Rebekah love their ART WORK!

Sister Charity was all smiles!

ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH ART TO A GROUP OF 10 GIRLS SCOUTS. THIS WAS TOWARDS THEIR ART BADGE. THIS IS PART ONE OF A TWO LESSON PLAN. THE GIRLS HAD THEIR OWN SUPPLIES, AND I PROVIDED THE INSPIRATION. WE DREW SHELLS, CORAL, STARFISH,  HORSES, DOGS, AND MORE. 
THE GIRL SCOUTS NOW HAVE SKETCH PADS TO PRACTICE IN.
 I TOLD THEM THE WAY THEY WILL GET BETTER AT DRAWING IS TO KEEP PRACTICING IN THEIR SKETCH PADS. IT WAS A LIVELY AND CREATIVE GROUP OF GIRLS. 
GREAT WORK TO THIS GIRL SCOUT TROOP!!!!

SUE MARRAZZO'S MIXED MEDIA YOUTH CLASS

Last night was the last night for my Youth Mixed Media Fall Art Class at the Art Center School and Galleries of Mechanicsburg. I had 11 students, boys and girls, and all ages. It has been a Fun and Experimental class for all. We were very messy (in a good way), busy and it was a very high energy group. Last night we did our art in our Mixed media Journal. We painted a background with lots of color and texture. Then we learned how to do an image transfer on top, then finished it off with little personal touches with stamps, paint, and more. Some did a self portrait, pumpkins, roses, and Rebekah (shown) did a painting with a PRINCESS THEME.
 As you can see..she was so HaPpY with her finished painting!!! GREAT WORK CLASS!
