PLAYTIME WITH THE KIDS!



Wednesday, July 21st was such a very memorable day! At the right is one sample of the art project I conducted for the Pasadena Museum of History's The Artists' Workshop


The event was a free, summer hands-on, art program specifically for children six to ten years old.


After a presentation 
focusing on color and composition, 
we proceeded to the Museum's Fenyes Estate Gardens, where t
he children created florals of cut paper and colored pencils
