Happy Creating!
Love textures and colours from nature: the next time you’re on a walk, start looking at the different colours around you. Notice all the cool shapes: sticks that are short lines, tree tops that are triangles, rocks that are round shapes, grass that is long lines. Trees of all kinds, rocks, clouds, the sky is not even the limit! Then we’ll take our ideas inside, and, using some of that recycling that’s been piling up around the house, make some colourful art!
Remember, the first rule of art here is you can’t make mistakes. Just keep going; the worst-case scenario is we have to try again and make another card! In the next edition of Art with Maya, I’ll share some steps for drawing and tips for creativity boosters, but for now, enjoy this art inspired by the great outdoors. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the coming spring, and feel free to share your art with me! I’d love to see what you create! You can find more art ideas, classes and workshops with me at www.mayaart.ca and on Facebook and Instagram at “Art by Maya”, or join my newsletter for more art at home tips and tricks!
