Number Tree - Educational Art - Crayola Colored Pencils

Educational art - number tree. Crayola colored pencils

I've mentioned the facebook group Embrace Your Art Daily before, it's an amazing group. They inspire you to create 365 days of the year, giving prompts with ideas for your art. The prompts and group members are absolutely wonderful.

This Number tree - educational art, was done entirely with Crayola Colored pencils, and was inspired by the #5 prompt "numbers."

This is an older picture, I'm pretty sure I did this one while I was still pregnant with Kinley. Noah loves it, and I was pretty proud of how it turned out also. I love being able to incorporate educational art into daily lessons and play.

I use art as my "me" time, my "mommy recharging" time, and I don't have to feel guilty about it when what I'm working on will be something we can use together to learn something.

I finally organized the art supplies

10/30/2015

I really like the look of combining different textures and colors in my doodles and I don't always do a lot of planning for my pictures, so having access to all of the supplies makes things easier, but also a bit overwhelming. In the past, I have tried a few different things, but none have really worked out the way I needed it to. Either there wasn't enough space on the surface I was working on, or everything was jumbled, and I couldn't find what I needed. Other times I would settle and use something else, then find what I should have used in the bottom of a mess of art supplies.

I have finally figured out the perfect way to organize the art supplies. I'm so excited. Not only have I got the best art space I've had yet, but I finally found a use for the old coke bottle crate that's just been hanging on the wall in the garage.

This is a collection of my artwork, ranging from mixed media whimsy, to educational art for my kids. Most pieces are done with Bic Mark it markers, crayola colored pencils, oil pastels, sharpie markers, watercolor paint, and/or watercolor pencils.

I've always loved arts and crafts, but as with everything, time became limited, and it ended up being an "on again, off again" thing. I was more into "crafts" than "Art-art" because I never felt like I really knew what I was doing and was embarrassed by all of my attempts of drawing/painting.

Thankfully, my kids love art time, and that’s given me the time and “excuse” to play with new techniques as well as old ones. I've joined a few art groups that have been very supportive and have given me a new confidence to create & show my work.
