✍️ In college, I studied drawing and painting. ✍️ In college, I studied drawing and painting. I knew then that by learning 2D design, it would inform my 3D artwork. Those lessons still help me today. . The September lineup of creative classes at Art & Souls Creative Studio focus on some of these same lessons and other favorites I have taught during my last 20 years with students. These one-day art classes are offered during the day for homeschool and remote learning students, plus a Saturday morning for more kids. Groups are welcome, too. Check out the new classes at ArtAndSouls.com/classes or in bio. Here’s a preview: . ✈️ Perspective Drawing -flat to 3D shapes, one and two point perspective . 👤Figure Drawing -drawing mannequins, people, and plush animals . 🗒 Paper Designs - learn to make three-dimensional projects using just paper . If your kids are as creative as our crew, they will love the variety of drawing and design classes in September. 👏👏👏 . 🤫 Psst… want a preview of our art classes and a DISCOUNT for classes we are offering in October and November? Well, that’s saved for members of our Class List. Join today for free at ArtAndSouls.com/classes . . #washmo #franklincountymo
Hmmm... 🧐 this is me looking at the calendar tr Hmmm... 🧐 this is me looking at the calendar trying to figure out a couple of things, and I need your help. Me and my teachers are making plans for 🍁 fall classes for groups of 10 or more. 🤗 I’m sensitive to homeschooling mamas, kids learning online, kids in co-ops and those in day school. Plus, we host scouts, youth groups, ladies nights, and other groups. . We want to consider your schedule for fall art classes. What schedule works best for you and your budding artists? 👩‍🎨 👨‍🎨 a. Tell me the best day of the week + time of day for two-hour long class. b. Do you prefer a three-day-long art camp offered in two-hour increments each day? Or a one day workshop with a two-hour class period? c. What creative play would your kids (of you!) enjoy most? Clay? Weaving? Drawing instruction? 2D design lesson? Art history? Painting and color theory? Knitting? Other? . Drop your comments here or reach me on a DM so we can plan around your schedule because we want to help your kids thrive! . . Thank you!! 🤗 Kelly Brinkmann 🎨 Art & Souls offers classes for creative kids and smart mamas in the area of Washington, MO. . . . #washmo #unionmo #franklincountymo #augustamo

Last fall, we enjoyed a tour of the Washington his Last fall, we enjoyed a tour of the Washington historical society museum near Downtown Washington. I loved sharing the Washington pottery exhibit with a homeschool group during our tour. When the late director, Mark Houseman, asked me to write down some of the facts I shared with the group about pottery, that began a collaboration with the museum curator, Lauren Seidel, and board members to refresh the local exhibit. . I learned about the history of Pottery Road and Clay Avenue in Washington and toured some of the sites where local potters dug local clay. If you’ve not been to the museum to see the new pottery exhibit, be sure to stop by Tuesday through Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM or on Sunday from 12 PM to 4 PM at 113 E 4th Street, Washington, Mo. The space upstairs at the museum is dedicated to zithers, the pottery exhibit, another three dimensional objects your kids will be sure to love! . Thank you to the Washington Historical Society for allowing me to contribute to our town’s history. . . . #washmo #pottery .

🤔 How do you teach confidence? . One stitch at 🤔 How do you teach confidence? . One stitch at a time, friends. . Today was sewing day at Art Camp2. 🧵 I invited my local sewist friends (@swiftfoxclothing and @theotherandreamartin and @theresa.holz ) to come teach the tools of their trade to more than 20 local kids at The Studio today. . The students made canvas bags with straps perfect for 📚 reading, 🎨 crafts, 💎 and other treasures. While their bags are versatile, the best thing about them is the confidence it created in the students. . Their smiles and exclamations like, “I did it!” and “Look at mine!” had them grinning with pride seeing a project that they had never tried before come together. . Now THAT is the lesson I hope they carry with them long after a week at Art Camp2. . . . #confidence #icandohardthings @emissourian Thanks for coming out to visit today! 📸 . 🎨 Be sure to join our class email list to be sure you get the latest announcement about her upcoming fall classes at www.ArtAndSouls.com/classes

I love the physical nature pottery. It’s hard la I love the physical nature pottery. It’s hard labor to reclaim clay, smear it out on the table, and wedge it up again to be remade into new work. While the making may catch your attention, it’s the remaking that makes me come undone. It is the part I love the most. . Wedging is a physical reminder that God has brought me out of some tough places and set me on a firm place. No matter the circumstance, the past, or words from others, I am at peace when I am centered on Jesus. . Have you walked the same path? Do you need a solid place to stand that is rooted in timeless and unchanging ways of Jesus? I do. I need that in the daily. . . . Art & Souls Creative Studio - Handmade artwork for Spirit and Soul .

WLM is a team of counselors, teachers, authors, speakers, and pastors provide real insight into making emotionally healthy marriages. 💕 In today’s environment, I need some encouragement and cheering on, you? 🙋‍♀️ . I’m so grateful to be a part of the WLM Podcast Team to talk about tough topics and deeper parts of marriage. As an artist, I share word pictures and stories to make spiritual connections to God’s word. The episode I recorded for WLM today shares some techniques I use when I am deceived to think who I am is not enough.

Sipping from my mug today, I reflected how I canno Sipping from my mug today, I reflected how I cannot pour out to others from an empty cup. . We have had three full weekends in a row full of love and laughter, but today I’m staying in. I’m spending time in quiet while reflecting on God’s word. I’m moving slow, savoring the steps and small actions to fill up again. ☕️ . The sticker on this mug points to a steadiness I need. Seasons come and seasons go, but the Word and promises of God are true forever. That truth prompted me to write this original poem (sticker above) during a tough season. While I was experiencing the fall and winter periods then, with Jesus, I had the hope and promise of spring and summer ahead. I hope this sticker is a daily reminder that he is with you in each season and that hope can last all the year through. .
