Wizard Week: Wizard Selfies!

Did we have fun making Wizard Selfies yesterday! It was such a blast and the Art Class with Cassie kids did an INCREDIBLE job! In case you missed it, here are the supplies we used:

And here's the video so you can create!

You won't want to miss today! We are making Baby Dragon Puppets! Grab your supplies and I'll see you on my Instagram or my Facebook LIVE at 11am CT. Or check the afterparty on my YouTube channel. New videos added daily so be sure to subscribe! 

Let's Make a Landscape!

Here's an easy and fun way to teach about the four parts of a landscape: horizon line, back-, middle- and foreground. What I love about this little lesson is that the pop-up stands up and it can act as a card of a storytelling prompt as it opens like a book! Check out this three-minute demo. Feel free to share with the young artists in your life!

Have fun!

Wizard Week!

Every week, my amazing artists have been asking for a Wizard Week and I'm excited to share that it's here! This week I have a fun line-up with some surprises sprinkled throughout that you'll only know about if you join Art Class with Cassie LIVE!

To join me LIVE, you can find me on my Instagram or my Facebook at 11am CT. If you ever miss out, not to worry! All art classes are posted to my YouTube channel the very next day. I share videos there almost every day so you might want to subscribe so you don't miss a thing!

Like nearly every week, let's kick this one off with a Wizard Selfie! I'll share lots of different ways to draw yourself as a wizard.

Who doesn't want a baby dragon? If you don't have construction paper, white paper will work great too! 

 Every wizard needs a castle! Let's design and draw yours!

 I've been getting a lot of unicorn requests so let's make one out of salt dough clay! I'll share with you how to make your clay first. No ingredients? Grab your Play-Doh or other favorite clay instead!

 We'll end our week with some Potion Bottle Pop-Ups!

I hope y'all are as excited about this week as I am! Big thanks to our sponsors Art to Remember and Ticonderoga! Y'all are simply the best. Be sure and check them out! 

Outer Space Week: A Wrap Up!

This past week was Out of this World! We not only had space week but I also shared an Earth Day project each day! If you missed any of the Outer Space Projects then look no further, I've got them right here. If you want to check out the Earth Day projects, just hop over to my YouTube channel and search the "Let's Make" playlist! 

This was our sixth week of Art Class with Cassie and I excited to announce that next week our theme will be...Wizards! Stay tuned tomorrow for the list of projects and supplies needed. Until then, here's all the Outer Space projects from this week. 

Oh! AND just to make sure you don't miss out on next week, I go LIVE every weekday at 11am CT. You can find me live on my Facebook and my Instagram. If you've missed any of our themed weeks, you can find all of the videos on my YouTube channel! Be sure and subscribe, new videos are added every day! 

We did created collagraph rocketship prints on Friday!

Made fun puppets on a moon stage on Thursday!

Wednesday was a kid-favorite as we created Salt Dough Solar Systems!

Making this Talking Alien was a whole lot of fun too!

And on Monday we created Astronaut Self-Portraits!

Let's Create Pinwheels!

Let's make pinwheels! I'll show you a couple of different ways. For pinwheels that move, you'll need:
* Two pieces of paper
* A pushpin or thumbtack
* A pencil with an eraser
* Scissors and glue

If you don't have a pushpin or a pencil with an eraser, we can make one that doesn't move with a popsicle stick instead (or a ruler, a strip of cardboard, you name it!). 

Have fun!
