Art with numbers and letters inspired by Jasper Johns

I'm not sure what 'coming out right' means. It often means that what you do holds a kind of energy that you wouldn't just put there, that comes about through grace of some sort.”
- Jasper Johns

First and second grade artists looked at various Jasper Johns paintings that included letters and numbers.  Each student chose a number or letter and use the primary colors of tempera paint to "camouflage" it with both, energetic brush strokes.  We experimented with color mixing and different types of brush strokes.
