Art Share Fair Summer 2026

 



                                     We started with making name tags and introducing ourselves... 

Then we shared lessons from our classrooms. 
Alysa shared color wheel eyes, 2 point perspective contrasting worlds, 
and Pop Art Accordian Art. 

Pop Art Accordion Art
Use one pop art image and the sound (onomatopoeia) that it makes. 
Cut into strips and glue onto background paper alternating, 
then accordion fold.  


Perla shared beautiful Zentangle ideas in a journal. 

Heather Crain shared Torn paper pictures, Junk Journals, Grateful Garlands, 
and ideas for using plastina clay for mini lessons. 

Candy is sharing lessons with torn paper landscapes. 
She also shared a Monet lesson. 

We took a much needed lunch break at downtown's 
La Waffalata and East Texas Burger. It was delicious. 

We visited Ms. Crain's classroom at the Mineola Middle School 
to rummage though donated supplies. 

Candy's Lesson for Monet Waterlilies using balloons.,


First, teachers are making the water surface backgrounds with pastels. 
Then, we stamp the paper with green paint on balloons.

We ran out of time and still had so many things we wanted to do!
Looking forward to next year. 
Keep creating and inspiring.

Over and Under Art

                    There's always more than meets the eye. There's something over and under us. 

These artist/illustrators create works that show us beyond what we see. Some of them show what is really there and some show what they imagine there. It's as if there are worlds beyond our world.

CRITERIA
-Use half your paper to show what is at your visible level. 
-Use the other half to show the UNSEEN, what is over or under your vision. 
EX: monsters under the ground, mermaid under the water...
It can be under water, under ground, or above the layer of clouds. 
-Use whatever medium you feel most comfortable with. Show effort and skill with this medium. 

  Basic Rules Apply:
-Be creative:
use your imagination and have fun with color.
-Show effort (not a race)
-Fill up space
-Use what you know: 
how to create forms and show space. 

This idea has inspired many illustrators. 



Here is my pinboard for the ideas that inspired me...
