Opening Ceremony.

We wrapped up JUNGLE*topia a couple days early to make sure we could participate in the most important aspect: PLAY!
The Procession to the Site:


Then we installed the EYE. Jon (left) Jan (right).

The Hands!

For the hands we started with a rough sketch, than got out the jig saw and let the kids re-interperate/wiggle the lines we had intially started with .
Wonky tonk hands!
High-Five Sandwich!

Then we painted the hands...much like the EYE.
Kids love splatter!

Then Jon went in and put in some lines and installed them to the Central Figure.

The Eye of JUNGLE*topia

An illustration of an eye was cut out of plywood to create the eyepiece of JUNGLE*topia. Each camper added a stroke, splash, squirt, or double do to include thier hand in the process.
Hmmmm...(Crocket) the color theorist.

After each camper left their mark, Jon Bocksel went back in and added some linear details.

The Stairs are in!

This smaller tree space is in the process of becoming a pulley station to tree house west, a well as remaining a camera/documentation platform.

Barn Stairs

Here is the full section of the barn stairs, we knew we would need to use somewhere.
Jesse and his wave are working on the time lapse photo booth, the booth will be used to document the general area of JUNGLE*topia a couple of times a day to create a progressive slideshow/animation.
The staircase happens to work out really well for this element.
