Violet's Art Camp

Violet is a talented artist, but she hasn't wanted to take any art classes. I was thrilled when she agreed to attend a visual arts summer camp at the local community college, for junior highers exploring various careers.

The camp went from 9 to 3 for one week, and was an excellent value. Violet enjoyed it, and came home with some neat pieces, using different media: charcoal, ink, paint, etc.

This first one is a collage she made out of old National Geographic magazines. She didn't enjoy this assignment very much, but I thought she did a cool job with it.

For this, the kids were tasked to design a music album cover. Violet focused on music from her favorite anime show, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

This was a magazine illustration assignment. Violet chose an article about a Korean War veteran's painful memories from the frontlines. Quite a moving image she designed.
This was a book cover.

Violet enjoyed the class, and I'm so glad we found out about it. Also, on Friday, the girls were both at the college together, as Cora was there for her Spanish class.
