At this week's Painting Camp in Rockton, Illinois, at Jill Rae Finally Art Gallery.

The Painting Art Camp at Jill Rae Finally Art in Rockton took place from June 12-15, 2023, where the instructor, Cassie Branecki, went through several different painting mediums with children ages 8-14.

Cassie Branecki has been teaching classes at JR Finally Art and RVC's Whiz Kids for the last two years. Before joining the gallery, she taught art with the Young Rembrandts program in the local schools.

The next Painting Art Camp will be from July 17-20 in the JR Finally Studio & Art Gallery at 210 W. Main St. in Rockton. Registration is open.

Each day of the painting camp had its own theme. The first one was a Mario-themed version of Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh.

"First day of Painting Camp was a big hit with this Mario themed painting!"

Day 2 was bubble day...

Bubble paintings from the kids


And a little more Mario painting.

Looks like the kids like the Mario movie quite a bit.

On day 3 the theme was pet day. The little artists painted their pets.

Reference pictures from their pets to paint them!

Day 4 was the last day of the painting camp. Everyone was happy and went home with plenty of art.

Beautiful art work from the kids at the last day of the summer camp.
