Mixed Media Owls

After drawing their owls and transferring those drawings onto styrofoam "printing plates" students were responsible for printing their owls.  They marbled paper with leaves on them using shaving cream and liquid water colors, and painted their background trees.  Here we are in final assemble of all the different the pieces!

Mixed Media Owls

Students began by drawing an owl in crayon and then using watercolor to create a resist. Then they marbled a leaf sheet in order to get the fall colors. Students then painted their tree on their background paper, cut and assembled their pieces. Voila!

Kindergartners starting One Point Perspective Farm...

Students expanded on their perspective lesson by including horizon and aerial perspective components, but starting one point perspective and a vanishing point as well! They are doing great!!

Room 104 and 113 start water color washes for their haunted trees...

4th and 5th grade start a multi media owl scene...

First, students draw owls from some printed examples. These will be transferred onto foam for printing. The leaves and the background will be marbled and painted in a later class, and finally assembled into one piece.  So much autumn fun!!
