Let’s start stamping! Using a potato as your “stamp,” assemble different paints and explore sources of inspiration to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
Elizabeth Roath Garcia, our studio and gallery programs manager, developed this DIY activity with inspiration from patterns in nature and from the painting Early Spring—Bluebonnets and Mesquite by American artist Julian Onderdonk.
