iPad Art --Sunnyvale Summer Camp Pics

I am truly  blessed that I was able to inspire a curious group of children to create art using their iPad. Students were taught how to use Paper by 53 app and Procreate.

This  week long ( July 13 to July 17,2015) camp was held at the Sunnyvale Community Center, Sunnyvale CA. Age group of children were 7 to 9 years.

I thank the team at  Mobile Art Academy and the staff at the Sunnyvale Community Center for making this possible.

And here are the artworks of my amazing and talented  students. All of them did a wonderful job !

Two challenges in One Tile

This week at That's New To Me Challenge the random letter is "H". We have to use tangles starting from the letter H that you have never used before.  We also have to use any tangle the artist in focus has created on our tile.  The artist in focus for this week is Michele Beauchamp

I used Henna Drum and Heart vine. I used Michele's "Brayd" tangle and "Wist" tangle for this week's challenge. I also used Carole Ohl's " Featherfall" tangle.  I  also used " Poke root" tangle because it is my most favorite tangle and I tend to use it as often as I can. 
For this piece I used Henna Drum as a string to the tile. 

This week at the Diva challenge blog we have to limit our color palette  to 2 to 3 colors. I used Orange and Green Colors.  I used a Sharpie for this week's challenge. I decided I will combine both the challenges in  a single tile.

I totally enjoyed this week's TNTM and Diva's challenge. It was fun.  Thank you !

N tangle, Tipple and Umble Challenge

Here is my entry for this weeks challenge  at SuzyMosh's  blog. For this weeks challenge we have to use any tangle that starts with the letter "N" and we must also use the artist in focus - Neil Burley's tangles on the tile. He is a mixed media artist, designer,tutor based in UK.

I used all new tangles for this week's challenge. I used Susan McNeill's  " Nine Patch" tangle, Beth Snoderly’s  " Neuron" tangle and two of Neil Burley's   tangles  " Leggo" and " Mile Straight" for my tile for this week's challenge.

This week's challenge for I am the Diva is to use Tipple as a Monotangle. Here is my entry for this week's challenge

Title: Tipple
Medium:  Sakura Micron Pens and a Sharpie

Do check out her blog http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.com/ if you want to participate and for some creative inspiration from other artist's. 

This is my entry for last week's  diva challenge. We had to use Umble tangle in our art piece. 

Title: Origami Zen Swan
Medium: Micron Pens by Sakura

Note: I used an expired coupon paper and created an origami swan. After that I tangled on it with my Sakura Micron Pens. 

Title: Zen Birdies

The Zen Birds (see picture above) is inspired from Susan Mcneill's you tube channel and blog. 

I used an wood bird which I found at Michael's. Used watercolor paper and color pencils, sakura micron pens and drew tangles. Then cut it to fit the shape and used Mod Podge to glue them on. I used 2 coats of Mod Podge.

 I am yet to take a picture of the other side of the bird. Will post once  I am done.


 Thank you all for your time and response in advance. Wishing you all a Creative week ahead.

Happy Tangling !
