Vandalia Artful Adventure Day

Wasn't sure what to expect for this day of chalk art. It was going to be a day for kids to come a do art. I suggested that I could do an outline for kids to color in with chalk. I decided to use tempera instead of chalk for the outline so it would last longer. I wasn't sure what type of surface to expect so I brought both white and black tempera. If the surface was blacktop I would use white, but if it was sidewalk I would use black. It turned out to be sidewalk so I decided to use black. 

I arrived early. The event was to start at 11 so I got there about 9:30. I was finished with my design by the time the event started. I was barely finished and I had kids waiting to color in the lines! By the time I left about 12:30 much of it was colored. 

Great day! Not too hot. I will be going back to Vandalia in October! Trying to decide what to do then!

This is my workspace.

 

Kids couldn't wait to get started!
