Focus of the art camp

I am very excited to announce that registration is open for my first annual Summer Art Camp. The first session will be held on July 23, 2011.

The purpose of the camp is to instill creativity in our kids and showcase their ability to express themselves in a positive way. From basic principles of painting to grasping perspective, from understanding proportion to utilizing realism as a communicative tool- this experience will strengthen your child’s ability to perceive the world around them.

This summer’s art project will focus on watercolor with various team building exercises throughout the day. The students will use the techniques that are taught at the camp to create their very own 14” x 17” watercolor painting. The paintings will be matted and featured in a gallery at the Baytown Community Center. The next day the parents will be invited to a reception where they can see their child’s artwork on display. After the reception, the children will be able to bring their artwork home. Refreshments will be provided.

If you (or anyone you know) is interested in enrolling a child please refer to the camp website for more information or call/email me for any other questions or concerns. The URL is: http://www.simienartcamp.blogspot.com

Please keep your eyes open for information about the camp on BTV (Baytown Television- Comcast Channel 16), multiple press releases and also on marquees throughout the city of Baytown. Classes will start filling fast so if you are interested please contact me or the Baytown Community Center.

The summer camp is just the beginning. My hope is to foster student creativity, and with my help throughout the year, other camps, art shows and community service projects will showcase their incredible imagination and development.
