Art Assignments
Any work you'd like to submit for the longer-form newspaper need to be in by May 13.
Collect & Create
Build It!: Download instructions. Listen to instructions. See examples and collections. Go creative!
Box Challenge
Can you convert a box into something? I used cereal boxes to create: a series of planters, a sphere, and a nest. Planters are shown below.
Tiny Sculptures
Collecting materials for is fun in and of itself. While piecing them together is fantastic. I'm thinking on using my kids toys to create human forms. Just thinking, I say; yet you know the collecting is happening.
Drawing Shadows
How much fun can this possibly be?
Texture Tracings
This is one of my favorite art activities.
Animal Chains
This can be any animal or shape. I went with an elephant.
Tube to Cube
Here we are converting a form into a form...a paper towel tube into a box. I use my boxes for holding crayons, blunt sewing needles, and odd objects.
To Remember
When we make art (and music), we aren't doing it because someone asked us to do it; rather, because we are seeking our "zone" - a place where we "flow". We know it when we get there.
