The 4th of July is in only a couple of days, as of this blog post.  We will have BBQ's and eat watermelon and set off fireworks to celebrate. We also think it would be super celebratory to do some patriot drawings with these kid artists.

​Below are 3 drawing projects by kids and for anyone who wants to make some festive, patriotic art.

The overcast weather won't last forever in Portland, Oregon, so when then sun comes out and the days get warmer, why not show off more skin with henna body art? 

You could paint your roommate's, kids', sister's or mom's hands, backs or legs with amazing henna art designs or you could do it to your own hand and legs as you'll see in the video below.  Click on the image to watch the full video and how to create the intricate design pattern. 

Of course, we always encourage you to be brave and make your designs own too.  When you're done, you'll have a beautiful design which will last for a few days.  It will give you plenty of time to show off in the summer sun.

What To Do When Summer Is Less Summery--Make Clay Sculptures--Of Course!

0 Comments

Read Now
 
Usually, during the summer, we'd recommend going outside and doing some cool art projects like sidewalk chalk drawing or urban sketching.  But we see in the forecast for Portland, Oregon, we're in for a few more days of overcast, cooler weather.  What do we recommend during the less summery days of summer?  When it feels a little colder than summer should be, it's a great idea to get out that bag of clay and do some fun sculpture projects like a clay dragon!  

In the video below, Trista the artist shows you step-by-step how to make a clay dragon.  It's a fun way to take advantage of cooler weather and gray skies.  Your clay won't dry as quickly as on a hot, sunny day, giving you more time to sculpt as carefully as you need to.
​
Of course, we wouldn't leave you hanging if you don't have a big bag of clay at your home.  You can get a full clay art kit, including tools and the clay on our website.  Click this link to be brought to the full clay kit.

Raise Your Voice in Support of Black Lives Matter With Your Clothes--Screen Printing BLM on Tee-Shirts

0 Comments

Read Now
 
We have seen a lot of posters that show their support for the Black Lives Matter (BLM) Movement, but we have seen a lot fewer protest statements on shirts.  Why not raise your voice by making a BLM screen printing tee-shirt?  Why not wear your voice and support even if you cannot be heard very clearly while wearing a mask (Do you have a hard time speaking clearly through a mask on too)? 

​Watch the How-to-Screen-Print video to make your own protest tee-shirts.  Click on the image below to be brought to it. 

Once, you figured out what you're going to design on your new protest tee-shirt, we have plenty of small screen printing kits that you can buy from our websites to get you started.  Click here to view our screen printing kits.  We love you and are so proud of you for standing up for black lives!
