Materials: Paper, pen or pencil, and coloring materials (example: watercolor, colored pencil or crayon).

Description: In this workshop, we will focus on a common type of beetle found in many gardens and beyond, the weevil. There are many types of weevils worldwide, but this particular specimen is a common garden sight in North America.

LUNA MOTH and PERSIMMON MOONS

Materials:
Paper, paint (tempera, watercolor, or acrylic), colored pencils, chalk or white colored pencil
Description:
In this workshop, we will illustrate a Luna moth, alongside one of its caterpillar’s favored trees: The persimmon. The Luna moth in its imago (adult) form is active at night, so we will create a night scene using a layered paint and colored pencil approach.

Leave your home and look around – nature is right next to us. You can hear frogs in the lake, something rustles in the bushes, birds fly in the sky, sometimes there is a multitude of stars in the sky and sometimes there are none at all, the seasons change. During our art workshops, we will get to know and illustrate many questions about the surrounding world of nature. All of this we will illustrate with drawings, collages, and paintings.

In a consecutive series of art workshops, children and their families will learn the art elements (line, shape, color, value, texture, and shape), which are part of every painting along with the study of nature.
