Kids need more art


The title of the post is the name of an art school for kids in Jupiter, Florida. It's pretty awesome.

Kae's Girl Scout troop had a field trip there yesterday. They explored art in nature, as in artists that worked outdoors. They learned about Van Gogh, and Monet. They also learned some art history by comparing pictures of old paintings.

The girls learned a lot about the technical aspects of art, composition, light, shading. They used a mixed medium to draw and paint Tiger Lilies. 

It was the quietest the girls have ever been in the two years I've known them!

We'll definitely go back for their Brownie Art Try-It
