Thursday Art Slam for Kids!: TylerD Studios: Spring 2009
Thursday Art Slam for Kids!
I am thrilled to offer a new series of kids classes at TylerD Studios in Burlington, N.C.! Join the fun each week as we explore a different project in the arts. Thursdays: 5:00-6:30 p.m. as listed below. Limit 10 students per class, ages 5-10
Cost: $30 each session, all supplies included
To register please email me. I would love to meet you!
Jan. 28 -- It’s time for clay! We’ll use Crayola’s Model Magic foam clay to sculpt pots, animals, people, mini-accessories and more! Bring your ideas and your fingers and we’ll go to town!
Feb. 4 -- Valentine’s Day Stained Glass Drawings! We’ll trace our hands and hearts on paper first. Then using color, form and pattern, we’ll create beautiful Valentine art that resembles stained glass windows.
Feb. 18 -- Photo Collage Day! We’ll make fun paper collages about ourselves and those who are special to us. Bring pictures of yourself, family members, pets or friends if you like. We’ll put them all together to make a special keepsake collage for you.
March 4-- Make A Kite! We’ll make kites using construction paper and a variety of materials and then we’ll decorate them! If it’s pretty outside, we can have a flying contest at the end of class. These kites are easy to make, so you may be able to create more than one.
March 18-- Crayon Etchings! This is a fun project that anyone can enjoy. Younger children are fascinated at the mystery of this project and older kids can create very detailed and beautiful etchings. First we’ll create thick colorful crayon drawings, and then we’ll cover them with black before scratching out a drawing.
March 25 -- Easter Bunny Pop-Up Cards! Create your very own Easter Bunny Pop-up card using paper, scissors and glue. Embellish your scene with Easter eggs and other fun drawings.
April 8-- Spring paintings! It’s that time of the year again… flowers bloom, birds chirp and all the green starts returning to the landscape. We’ll make paintings of spring subjects on artist canvas to celebrate the season!
April 22 -- Bean Mosaics! We’ll learn about the ancient art of mosaics and then create our own versions using colorful beans. Think of a very simple drawing for this project. Good ideas are pet pictures, self-portraits or landscapes.
May 6 -- Wooden Keepsake Box Make a wooden keepsake box either for you or for a Mother’s Day present for Mom. Get ready to paint and decorate something charming.

Just Married
Dave and I married in August and then celebrated with a honeymoon cruise to Spain, France and Italy. I am currently working on a series of paintings from this fabulous trip, including the yummy fields of sunflowers I saw in the south of France. Sunflowers have taken on a special significance to me, as I also used them to make my own bridal bouquet for our wedding ceremony. Watch out Van Gogh! Here comes Katie Wall Podracky!
Bridal Bouquets
Katie Wall Art's wedding bouquet paintings are now available for brides and grooms who wish to preserve their wedding details in beautiful paintings for the home. These works may be alternatives to traditional bridal portraits of the past, and they also help the couple start a meaningful and personalized art collection.
Each painting begins with a personalized consultation to choose the painting's size, colors and style and from that base, I create an heirloom painting for the new couple's home that will help them remember their perfect day and their perfect flowers.
These paintings make lovely wedding gifts too!
Pricing starts at $250. To inquire about a wedding bouquet painting, please contact me directly for more details.
