AnCan Art Friends – November 17, 2022 – Northern Lights

AnCan Art Friends – November 17, 2022 – Northern Lights

We LOVE our Art Friends here at AnCan! Not only do we create beautiful things together, but we take the time to come together as a community. All of our “students” are learning more and more each time, and we use those skills in other classes.

We also truly care about what matters to you. In fact, this art class project was requested by AnCan Art Friend Sharon, who wants to see the northern lights in person. Do you have any ideas for future classes? Just let us know!!

For this class, you’ll need

  • Paper
  • Your choice of medium – markers, pen, pencil, colored pencils, paint, watercolor pencils, anything that can mark.

AnCan Art Friends – October 20, 2022 – Fall Trees

Art Class was back in session with Hannah teaching us about fall trees, including fun add ons to your fall escape like owls, squirrels, and a swing.

Anything goes here! While markers were the main medium, we heard about coffee, soy sauce, and gum as potential art supplies.

You’ll need

  • Paper
  • Your choice of medium – markers, pen, pencil, colored pencils, paint, watercolor pencils, anything that can mark.

This art class was also in loving honor of our AnCan art friend, George Degnon, and we are holding his family tightly in our hearts. May his memory always be a blessing.
