Our Vintage Camper Painting

A little vintage camper drawing {on stretched canvas} started by a little artist in our workshop creating with six to eight year olds in HANDMAKERY FROM THE HEART: making + creating to give. Day #1 of a six week workshop, gathering to create once a week! This project was inspired by HANDMAKERY’S -{LOVE}- for vintage + collected + time-worn objects, graced with patina + imperfections + textures + unique colors, that tell a one-of-a-kind story. We dreamed up this project and envisioned it beginning 2-D, then moving into 3-D, with the addition of mixed media. Can’t wait to show you how it evolves and gets personalized below!

A few of our personal vintage object from 2Market2: clothing + handpicked goods located in Carbondale | CO used for inspiration + learning about vintage.

Beautiful Mess

Discovering vintage colors and developing a color pallet for our vintage camper painting. Think avocado green, bubblegum pink, creamsicle + clementine orange + more. We LOVED when each little artist shared their specific color scheme, as they were SO excited to create their own combination and very interested in getting the exact wording!
