Afternoon Art: Rose B. Simpson- Car Paintings
Every Tuesday 3:30-4:30 p.m.
Children ages 6 - 12 are invited to join us for creative art-making activities through a variety of media, from watercolor to clay. Each week features a famous artist, book, or theme to serve as inspiration and guidance for the art-making activity.
Mainly known as a ceramist, Santa Clara Pueblo artist Rose B. Simpson works in everything from sculpture, fashion, performance, music, installation, and writing to create powerful symbolic works. In her 2014 piece Maria, she repainted a 1985 Chevy El Camino, transforming the classic car into a sleek black-on-black object adorned with designs from traditional Tewa pottery. Learn about the artist and create your own work inspired by Rose B. Simpson.
