Explore the exciting world of pop art as artist Laura Ruprecht walks us through creating three dimensional images on paper. We will learn basic drawing skills and a little about the pop art movement; how using bold colors, unique shapes, and your own imagination you can create images with a lot of feeling. After a bit practice, we will collect all the skills we’ve explored and create a fun cake picture in the style of artist Wayne Thiebaud, using oil pastels. We’ll share the techniques you need for artistic success, you decide the “flavor”, colors, decorations, and most importantly… who to share your cake with!

Ages 7+ This project will require about one hour to create

What you’ll find (or need to collect from your home) in your Materials Kit:

• A set of Oil Pastels (we are using a Sakura Cray-Pas Junior Artist Oil Pastels 12 piece set, which can be used for this and many, many other projects!)
