To register, send me an email to confirm that your child will be attending. (Rachael Boyle - rachaelboyle(at)gmail(dot)com) Please include their name and age and which class they will attend. A $30 NONREFUNDABLE deposit (per child per camp) will need to be mailed to me (please email me if you need my home address) OR delivered to my house within a WEEK after registering. The $30 will be applied to the total cost of the class, the remainder of the total cost will be due on the first day of class.
The deadline to register for ALL classes is June 4th! Don't miss out, register early!
There needs to be a minimum of 6 children registered per class otherwise I will likely cancel that particular class. So invite your friends!
On the other hand, if a camp becomes too full, I will split it and create a second group.
If your child would like to participate in one of these camps but your schedule does not allow it, please let me know. If I have enough interested children I will hold another camp at a different date.
As a side note, I will begin teaching semi-private art classes in the fall. If you are interested, please let me know.
And here's the summer camp lineup ...!
Skillful Drawing and Painting - Training The Artist's Eye I am going to tell you a secret. Shhhh. To more easily paint/draw a beautiful masterpiece of something, you need to break it up and look at it in terms of colors, shapes, and lines! Wa la! Instant success, and that's what I want to teach you in this class. What "really" makes a picture? Training the artist's eye! Acrylic paints on canvass, watercolors on cold pressed paper, and black and white charcoal/chalk on black and white drawing paper will be our tools to create our 3 masterpieces. If you attended last year, our approach will be similar to the approach we used when we painted the picture of the boat docked on the beach with the shimmering sunset. (It won't be the same photo again, but it was very helpful for the children to reference a photo.) I taught the group what to look for, then I walked around and helped each child individually. It was very successful and each child was VERY proud of their work. This class is appropriate for children 7 years of age and older. June 11, 13, and 15th, 3 days 10am - 12am each day Cost is $75 per child. Includes all materials. Child is responsible for bringing their own cover-up.
Window Splashes: Promotional Signs and Holiday Art on Home and Business Windows You know those cute holiday pictures or those neon promotional signs you see on business windows? Well I am going to show you how they're done. Window painting is super fun! But it is also takes planning and can be technical. In this class, you will use acrylic paints at first, BUT once you've practiced, you'll learn how to transfer your design to big windows and use very high quality paints (that are special ordered), expensive brushes, and very smelly chemicals like turpentine and other oil solvents. Here's the best part, we will paint Dairy Queen's windows, located on Southern Blvd., for the Fourth of July Rio Rancho parade! Everyone will see it from the road! That's right, you'll be famous! Plus, after our hard work, Dairy Queen is going to treat all of the hot and tired artist to ice-cream! This class is appropriate for children ages 8 and older and who want to be a part of something BIG! June 18-22 Time: 5pm-6:30 pm Cost is $100 per child. Includes all materials. Child is responsible for bringing their own cover-up and bottled water. More details will be emailed to those who register for this class.
Splatter, Stick, and Stain This is your get messy, make messy, messy here, messy there, messy EVERYWHERE type of camp for children who like to have fun and create. But before we start, I will read a different book at the beginning of each day that will go along with our project for that day. Your child will enjoy listening to the book and thinking outside of the box while incorporating real art skills and learning about famous artists. Everyday we will create a new piece of artwork for your child to take home and proudly display! This class is appropriate for children entering kindergarten in the fall to 8 years old. Come get your mess on with us! June 25-28 2pm-3pm Cost is $60 per child. Includes all materials. Child is responsible for bringing their own cover-up.
I can't wait! We are going to have super fun and I am looking forward to seeing all of my returning artists and new ones! Here's to splattered paint, black charcoal smudges on our faces, fingers stuck together, colored soaked cover-ups, and messy floors!
