Art Class!! Yea, we started our 3 day art class today.  Mr and Mrs Stebbing of How Great Thou Art Publications.  So much fun but also so hard.  So much information was covered in the 2 1/2 hours it was kind of overwhelming.

The girls worked on color wheels and mixing paints to make new colors out of primary colors.  Worked also with colored pencils too.

Homework was assigned.  This is what the girls did.
