  1. Starry Night Winter Wonderland: Imagine Vincent Van Gogh's iconic "Starry Night" transformed into a magical winter scene. Kids will learn about Van Gogh's swirling, vibrant style and then apply it to their own canvas, capturing the beauty of a snowy, starry night. To mimic Van Gogh's distinctive texture, they will use basic white flour mixed with acrylic paint and a palette knife, creating a truly tactile masterpiece.
  2. Pop Art Snowmen with Andy Warhol Flair: Get ready for some colorful, pop art fun! Inspired by Andy Warhol's bold and playful style, kids will create their own series of pop art snowmen. Using Norman Rockwell's classic snowman as their base, they’ll experiment with bright colors, repetition, and patterns to make their snowmen truly pop off the canvas.
  3. Northern Lights Spectacular: Experience the awe-inspiring beauty of the northern lights through painting. Kids will learn techniques to blend colors and create the ethereal, dancing lights in the night sky. This painting will not only be a feast for the eyes but also a lesson in the wonders of our natural world.
