Nurture creativity & bring the JOY of art into your home with The Masterpiece Society & Awaken to Delight!

Happy Flag Day everyone! 🇺🇸 To celebrate, on Maste Happy Flag Day everyone! 🇺🇸 To celebrate, on Masterpiece Society, we have a created a FREE art lesson, which you can find in our Flag Day blog post!

Flag Day  is more than just stars and stripes, it's an invitation to celebrate the unique character and history of the United States through art. On this day in 1777, the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution that established the stars and stripes as the official flag of the United States. And so we celebrate to honor the history, symbolism, and unity represented by the flag as we reflect on American values and national pride.

Flag Day is an American holiday, but if you live in another country, we encourage you to reimagine this lesson with your own national flag! So whether you live in the U.S. or in another corner of the globe, this project is easy to adapt and full of opportunities for personalization.

Head over to the blog to find out how you can create your own whimsical American Flag! 🇺🇸

I don’t know about you, but when I think of summer I don’t know about you, but when I think of summer, I think of the beach — seashells, sand dollars, hermit crabs, and the deep blue, mysterious ocean and the vast amount of sea creatures that live far below the surface.

In keeping with this beachy theme, we have created a sea horse art lesson using watercolor and acrylic pants. Create alongside us in this lesson from our Celebrate Summer course! ☀🐚

This lesson is inspired by the amazing tessellatio This lesson is inspired by the amazing tessellation artworks of M.C. Escher! Tessellations are types of patters that are made up of repeating shapes that perfectly fit together, without gaps or overlaps. What makes Escher's designs so fascinating is that his repeating shapes often take the shape of animals, birds, fish, and even people!

In this project, we create our own tessellation tiles styled after M.C. Escher's creative works- find the lesson in our GeomARTry art course to begin! 🎨
