Creativity is just Around the Corner

Painting Pillows with Mark!

This past session students in Mark's Multi-Media Art classes create their own pillows! First, they drew on a flat piece of canvas. Next, everyone painted their pictures with step-by-step instructions from Mark! After creating their paintings, Eva Marie sewed fabric on the backs of the pillows for the students. When they got back their pillows, kids got to stuff them & finish up by sewing them shut!!

What a unique art project and a perfect way to decorate your home! Usually once a year Mark creates these pillows with his classes, and the kids have such a fun time doing so!

Our new class session is beginning soon... click here to learn more about our FREEHOLD classes. Remember, ART CAMP is just around the corner... in Freehold & Morganville!

Clay & Ceramics Projects for All Ages!

Fun Foxes from Multi-Media with Mark & help from Ed

Mr. Ed joined Multi-Media Art as a guest instructor a few weeks ago to teach students how to sculpt these cool foxes! They just look so cool! Clay is a three week process. First, you must sculpt with the wet clay. Then, we wait for them to totally dry and fire them in our kiln. After the first firing, students paint their sculptures with ceramic glaze. Finally, the foxes are fired again in the kiln for the students to bring home! 

 Tulips Plaques  from Multi-Media with Mark

In a different Multi-Media class, students created these beautiful spring floral ceramic projects. They are tied with a ribbon and will look beautiful hanging on the wall!

Sweet Sailboats from Kid's Art with Eva Marie 

A few weeks ago we began this sailboat project, and finally the kid's were able to take theirs home! They will be perfect to decorate for the summer. Eva Marie's Tuesday class did a fantastic job listening and working hard to create their own masterpieces!

Interested in learning more about Clay & Ceramics?

Every Monday night Mr. Ed teaches a Clay & Ceramics class for children ages 8 and up! Students create some amazing projects during each eight week session. Register today!
