Painting


We focused on creating today and met an artist! Bowman's very own art teacher Kristin Silver. Kristin spoke to us about her path as an artist and showed some of her work.


The girls then set to work themselves. The Brownies first painted different emotions (very colorful!) while the Daisies began making three-dimensional objects.


The Brownies explored ways of painting without a brush--and loved it.


They paired off and drew portraits.


They also cleaned, cleaned, cleaned and left the teacher's lounge a bit sparklier and smelling nicer (thanks to the lavender bouquets) than it was before we met this afternoon.

By the day's end, the Daisies had continued farther with their journey while the Brownies completed all steps for the Painting badge and one activity toward the Girl Scout Way badge. 
Both are triangular legacy badges.
