Whimsical Faces and Faraway Places Spring 2010 class pictures

This one one of the most incredible classes I have ever mentored...the growth and self-confidence in the girls grew and grew throughout this series! Both the 12 - 15 group and the 8 -11 group created page after
page of amazing art. We worked in Moleskine sketchbooks and the girls loved them...they could draw, paint, collage, any media they wanted could be added to the pages. We are continuing with the art journals with a drop-in class during the summer months.
