This past Sunday we participated in Next Generation's BBB on Isle of Hope. Scribble helped kids create artwork that would later be hung in the children's wing of the hospital. I love when I get the chance to combine art with a great cause. I had to come up with something that would work for all age and experience levels, plus the event was outdoors so I had that to factor in as well. Here's what I came up with!
The background is made up of layered tissue paper!
The center of each flower is stamped, using sticker back foam mounted on cardboard!
I kept the petal palette limited to bright, happy colors. Scrap fabric leaves were added as a final touch!
This week we did mixed media owls! I LOVED this project and thought each and every owl looked adorable. After drawing our owls we used oil pastels in the eyes, beak, and stomach. We used 2 to 3 paints for the body of the owl and background. Lastly we added torn paper wings. I really enjoyed the "action" quality mixing the paint on the paper added to the art work and plan to use this technique again!
