Can you tell I am behind on my posts???? Sorry about that!!! And now I am not even posting in order. Again, sorry. But at least I am getting the ideas out here.
Our April art class was so different and interesting. She talked about color. The kids used paints - primary colors. They mixed to get other colors. Then painted on their paper. After that they cut up the paper and mounted it on a metal grid. They could weave it or hot glue it. It made for some very interesting designs. Plus they were encouraged to use other items to mount / glue on the paper and grid such as buttons, beads, toy hats, sunglasses, etc.
The kids were encouraged to paint with things other than just a paint brush as it creates different designs and textures in the paint. Look at all those choices - it is hard to pick just one!!
Below you can see the swirl of colors as the boys got into their painting.
Below you can see J using a hot glue gun to mount his pieces in various designs on the grid.
