Project Overview

Teen Art Blast provided teenagers with one big block of time in which they could experiment with many different art supplies and techniques: pour painting, Mondrian painting, etching, and zentangling. Teens weren't asked to follow a pattern for any of the art projects, allowing their creativity to run wild. All the techniques were relatively simple to do but each produced a piece of art unlike any other in the room. Teens especially loved the pour painting!
