Wooooo....Haunted Houses!!

Today my students at All-Star Academy drew haunted houses onto watercolored sunsets that they had prepared last week.  Then they 'spookiefied'  their drawings by adding ghosts, bats, witches, dancing skeletons, etc!

Knee Bowls!

This week I showed my students how to shape a bowls using their knees.  They thought this was hysterical, but were pleased to see how well it works.  In Poway, the weather was nice so we worked in the park:

Fall classes at All-Star Academy

We started off this session with a drawing inspired by a hand sewn camel from India.  It is so simple to draw which made it easy for them to concentrate on creating patterns which was our objective. Some of these kids are just in Kindergarten.  They did an awesome job!!
