Masters of Light

An Impressionist Art & Music Camp with Miss Melinda & OTB Arts 🎶 August 17-21 -9am-1pm)
An Impressionist Art & Music Camp at OTB Arts

This August, we travel to France — where artists once carried their easels outdoors and painted sunlight, gardens, dancers, and everyday life.

At Masters of Light Camp, children step into the world of Impressionism and discover how art and music were transforming together in the late 1800s.

We won’t just study art history.

We’ll live inside it — through paint, sound, movement, and imagination.

🎨 Painting En Plein Air (Outdoors)

Just like the Impressionists, we’ll set up our easels under the trees and paint the changing sky, glowing leaves, and shifting shadows.

Children will explore:

• Loose, expressive brushstrokes

• Color mixing inspired by nature

• Light and shadow observation

• Painting what they feel rather than striving for perfection

🌸 Becoming the Artists

We’ll step into the studios of:

• Claude Monet

• Berthe Morisot

• Mary Cassatt

• Edgar Degas

• Pierre-Auguste Renoir

We’ll learn about their lives, their courage to try something new, and how Impressionism forever changed the art world.

🎶 Painting to the Music of the Time

Impressionism wasn’t just happening in paint — it was happening in music too.

As we create, we’ll listen to composers such as:

• Claude Debussy

• Maurice Ravel

• Camille Saint-Saëns

• Gabriel Fauré

Children will paint while listening to these beautiful pieces and explore how music influences mood, brushstrokes, and color choices.

We’ll also paint to live music as Miss Melinda plays classical guitar, creating a truly immersive artistic atmosphere.

Together, we’ll experiment with:

• Painting to slow vs. fast music

• Noticing how melody changes movement

• Creating art inspired by rhythm

And as a group, we’ll even create our own original musical composition inspired by light, color, and nature.

🎭 Music & Art Games

Throughout the week, we’ll play creative games such as:

• 🎨 “Paint the Emotion” — matching colors to musical moods

• 🎶 Movement sketching — drawing dancers and flowing movement

• 🌈 Color relay challenges

• 🎵 Rhythm-to-brushstroke games

• 🎨 Collaborative mural moments

These games build confidence, listening skills, teamwork, and joyful creativity.

🎨 Master Moment: Ceiling Masters Day

Inspired by Michelangelo, we’ll step outside Impressionism for one unforgettable day and paint under tables, and on "ceilings." — experiencing what it felt like to create a ceiling masterpiece.

🥖 Parisian Picnic Friday

We’ll end the week with a simple Parisian-inspired snack day, reflecting on our artwork and celebrating our journey through art and music together.

This camp blends art history, live music, outdoor learning, cultural exploration, and emotional expression — all in an intimate and nurturing setting.

Children leave with beautiful, frame-worthy artwork and a deeper understanding that art is about courage, observation, sound, feeling, and light.

Space is limited to keep the experience meaningful and hands-on.

Come paint the light with us. 🌿🎨🎶✨
