Hummingbird Video Chalk Art Tutorial

We’ve seen quite a few hummingbirds this summer. At dawn, when a few of us would go out on the back porch, we would find the hummingbirds already perched in the mimosa tree. Or a hummingbird or two flitting about, making their familiar little chirps. What amazing birds they are!

You might even add the flower the hummingbird is stopping by and a beautiful, blue sky! Enjoy and be sure to subscribe to our Hodgepodge YouTube channel for more free video art tutorials – because you ARE an artist!

You asked for it! A Simple Start in Chalk Pastels Video Art Course is available January 2, 2017! Because you ARE an artist. Nana walks you and your artists through the steps of creating beautiful artwork, providing tips on colors and teaching chalk pastel techniques.

Does your child find it easier to learn with a video tutorial? You will be happy to know that we have video courses for all ages!

  • A note on chalk pastels: Pastels are an easy, forgiving medium. Fun for children and adults alike! Details on the pastels and paper we use, how and where to purchase chalk pastels, plus the video The Very Few Must Have Supplies for Chalk Pastel Art. A simple set is very affordable. Nana also teaches acrylic lessons.
  • The practical aspects of a mess: Pastels are blessedly messy. We always have baby wipes close by to wipe hands. We wear something we don’t mind getting stained or don a smock.
  • Encouragement: You Can Be an Artist! 10 Day series and Art for All Ages 10 Day series

About Hodgepodgemom

Tricia faces a daily dose of chaos homeschooling five children. The biggest lesson she’s learned? At the end of the day – when the dishes are put away and the children are tucked in bed – truly what matters is each child’s relationship with the Lord. Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.
