Jenny Hall Art

This commission request came when my cute little Sam said over the phone, “Ms.Jenny, paint me Mario.” Well he got it!  Lots and lots of Mario:) The first set has a Piranha Plant, Super Mario, and Power Ups.  The second set has Mario and Luigi from Mario Kart.  Fun! Commission artwork

I needed a clay craft that I could do with my art lesson students that could air dry.  Here is a tutorial for these sweet little leaf “bowls.”  These all turned out very pretty and it even worked one-on-one with my six-year-old.  The clay I use says it dries in 2-3 days, but it took [...]

Recently I did a fun step-by-step (paint-party style) tee shirt workshop with a very talented girl-scout troop! Thanks to their awesome scout leader, Christy, for inviting me!
