Lessons and Supplies
Pirate Ships at Sea
Ahoy matey! In this lessons, Pirates, er, I mean, artists...will be pillaging paper stacks to create a great sea vessel. If you joined us for Painting without Brushes all that great textured painted paper is perfect. If you are joining us for the first time, grab some magazines you can tear up or a stack of patterned scrapbook paper. We will use some of our textured, painted paper, toilet paper tubes, glue, and markers or crayons, and maybe even some paint to create a pirate ship sailing at sea.
Bird Stacks

We will use tissue paper, construction paper, scrapbook paper, or even magazines if you have some that are ok to cut up, to make a beautiful fall leaf collage.
