Artists in the Spotlight - Mary Blair

This week our spotlight is on native Oklahoman, Mary Blair. Blair was an illustrator, animator, and designer for Walt Disney in the 1940's and 50's, working on such films as Peter Pan, Cinderella, and Alice and Wonderland. Just like Blair's work, our week will be full of color, movement, and storytelling!

Artists in the Spotlight - Shel Silverseitn

Join us for a week with the hilarious poems of Shel Silverstein! We will read, laugh, and
make lots of art inspired by Silverstein's wacky and wondrous word play and distinctive line drawing illustration style.

Artists in the Spotlight - Ray and Charles Eames

This week we will work at the intersection of art and design just like the power duo of Ray and Charles Eames did. We will answer questions of function, as well as form, and give into collaborative art play every single day!

Artists in the Spotlight - Georgia O'Keefe

This week we will take a deep dive into the iconic life and work of Georgia O'Keefe. Like O'Keefe, we will take our inspiration first and foremost from our surroundings, from the vastness of land and sky to the intimacy of flowers, bones, and shells.

Artists in the Spotlight - Bridget Riley

This week dizziness is a distinct possibility as we focus on the work of Bridget Riley and the op art style! Op art is short for optical art and is an abstract, geometric style of painting that gives the viewer the distinct impression of movement, swelling, flashing, warping or vibrating.

Whimsical Watercolor Fox Face

This whimsical process based activity is accessible to very young artists and artists of any age with special needs. The large round surface of the fox's head provides a great "empty canvas" for play and experimentation with watercolor paints. With very few additional steps, the process based painting is transformed into a large and happy fox face that will surely put a smile on anyone's face. Enjoy and happy springtime!
