Birches and Birds

First and second grade artists looked at the beautiful illustrations in Lois Ehlert's book, "Snowballs."

We used liquid watercolor paint with oil pastel resist to make colorful papers, which we used to cut out our birds. We used sheet music for our birch trees and added shading and detail with black oil pastels. 

Thank you to Deep Space Sparkle for the inspiration for this project! 

Magic Watercolor Resist Winter Paintings

First and second grade artists observed the "magic" of drawing with white crayon and watching as it is revealed by painting over it with watercolor paint.  

Zentangle Landscapes

Third and fourth graders learned about the art of Zentangles. We talked about how we can be in a calm, focused, peaceful state while creating our artwork. Artists drew simple landscapes, then used different patterns to fill the sections.
