The Missouri Fine Arts Academy! I get so excited for this arts camp every year. The kids always come out of it transformed and ready to take on the art world with their creations. Here’s a wrap up post of my three weeks working with them.
Good morning, MFAA! Now make a human sculpture! This was my Interdisciplinary Studies class. All of the different art disciplines like Dance, Music, Theater, and Fine Art were all thrown together into a class and had to work on exercises that would cross different creative disciplines. Lots of silliness and giggles ensued.

MFAA’s principles of design workshop, exploring mark making and paint. For the first two days, the students worked with paint and ink working Automatic drawing exercises and reacting to music as they made expressive marks on the page. The last day of the workshop, they could do whatever they wanted with the artworks made from the first two days in order to complete it. It make for some interesting creative choices.
