Today was “signature” day at the 2007 Mazza Art Camp. During the week young artists from five to ten years old create a picture book. They put the whole thing together: 3D-color-cover, swirling inside cover, pictures and text. The artists write the story and illustrate the book. Above you can see some of the self portraits of the artists.
Below is the book of my daughter – The Missing Color’s. The book is opened to the pages that show the entrance of the evil octopus, Medalia. As she enters the right page notice how she steals all the color from the ocean leaving only black and white. Not bad for a second grader.
On Friday afternoon the artists gathered in the Gardner Fine Arts Pavilion for a book signing session. A good time was had by all.
