We hosted our first Art Party and had such an amazing time. Everyone had a blast and at the end of the night James and I had a beautiful piece of new artwork.
To have your own here's how it works.
Pick a favorite piece of art in the size you want. It's so easy to order anything you want from Art.com This is what we picked, Navaro Rapids by Ando Hiroshige.
Cut it into squares, one for each guest you have. We had 12.
Get all your supplies together. Pastels work so great, we had coloured pencil, oil pastels, pastels, also get a good art paper, and some fixative spray.
Everyone gets one square of the original print and a blank piece of paper cut the same size of square from the original print. Allow the artist inside to express your creativity. All of our guests knew we were having an art party, they were great sports about it considering everyone said what terrible artist's they were. But eveyone ended up having such a great time and were very surprised just how talented they really were!
A work in progress...
It was so fun seeing everyone finish their squares, you can hardly tell which is the original and which one we recreated!
Once everyone is finished put together the finished product.
The art party was a huge success, I am already picking another print for our next party!
