Cigar Box Fun with Lynne Medsker!!

Today we had a visiting artist named, Lynne Medsker. She is a local artist here in Indianapolis. You can find her art on her website at www.lynnemedsker.com!

Lynne shared with us how to make cool and creative scenes on the surface of our cigar boxes. Our favorite part was learning how to use sand in art and make it look pretty!! Next time we will add paint to our sand and then finish it off with a nice clear glaze. We are excited about our finished product!!! We even chose a new Studio OTB logo today!






Later some of us are planning on going out to eat, shopping for a new video game, talking to our parents on the phone, or relaxing in front of the TV!

We look forward to blogging again soon!

Spring Fever and Nature Art!!!

We completed our Spring scene boxes today!


We were really glad that to finish our boxes! The sun and the flowers were our favorite things to add to our box.  We are looking forward to Spring because we will get to travel, and celebrate Summer holidays like the 4th of July, and go to Summer concerts and watch sunsets.
