Close-up Flowers
We did a mini-lesson on Georgia O'Keeffe. A short biography found here. Then, we looked up Georgia O'Keeffe on pinterest to see a diverse range of her art. I found this project that we used as a guide for our close up flower projects.
Michael's first self-portrait
In order from the top--Daniel, Tera and Michael. Great project, but we needed to be a whole lot heavier with the pastels to create a better resist. JP did the drawing tutorial.
Basically, draw a sea turtle in very light pencil. Fill in flippers, head and shell with geometric shapes.
Trace darkly with oil pastels.
Paint over with watercolors.
Sprinkle salt on wet parts.
