Our Earth Art classes include elements of earth science, art history, artistic skill and technique building, and sometimes conservation, while getting to use many quality art materials and natural items hand selected straight from the outdoors. Our focus is on learning where our materials are coming from and how to use them to create, classical art concepts and techniques, and the process of creating art from the heart. Most classes are geared towards homeschool students in the Cobb County and Greater Atlanta areas in the 6-12 year age range.
We also offer Earth Science classes that include lots of hands-on time with natural specimens and/or activities that real scientists would perform during field work.
Upcoming Events:
Thank you Atlanta Insider for including us on your list of the 22 Best Atlanta Homeschool Days and Programs. More information on Earth Art classes and upcoming dates can be found HERE.
I am currently booking private workshops for 2023. Public events will be extremely limited this year due to an extra busy field work season. Public events will be added when they are available, but private workshops will be the focus this year for programming. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss private booking options for individuals or groups.

Private classes are a great option for those who want one-on-one attention, more time for advanced instruction, have specific health considerations, those who want to schedule something for a family or private group, or for those who want assistance in creating something handmade for their holiday gifts this year. Private classes are great for camps, schools, homeschool groups, co-ops, daycares, clubs, a moms night out with friends, families, and more. Many class topics can also be tailored for any age range, from child to adult. Email me to discuss your needs and get something booked- blondeshotcreative(at)gmail.com
Art class offerings include: Wax and Candle Making, Leather Tooling, Wildcraft Palette (handmade earth paints), Fiber Arts and/or Crocheting, Charcoal (as an art medium and survival item), Gyotaku (fish printing), Cyanotypes on Fabric, and more! Science class offerings can be found on the conservation page.
Private 1:1 Art Guidance Sessions
Book your serious art student a private 1:1 session with our experienced art instructor (and working artist!) to help guide them through whatever processes they need some focused attention and guidance on. We can offer time and materials to experiment with new art mediums, learning specific tips and tricks along the way. We can focus on critique, editing, sequencing of a series, putting together a portfolio, prepping artwork for exhibition, writing an artist statement, and entering contests or calls for entry. Or, let us know what specific areas your student would like some help with! This is not the same as a class where there will be formal instruction and art making on a specific topic. Homework may be necessary to get the most out of our meetups and your students project(s).
