Full Moon Art Project

I saw this idea a few weeks back and thought it looked really neat.   I used the tutorial on drawing a tree from this website.  

Draw a tree on black paper and cut it out.

Then, starting with a white oil pastel, draw concentric circles, gradually using darker shades of blue.  Finish with black on the very tips of the corners of the paper.






Take a q-tip dipped in baby oil to blend the oil pastels together.




















Glue your tree to your moonlit background. 

Finished products:

Michael's (with help, of course...but he had to do a tree, too) 



















Tera's 


Daniel's 



I love this project!  It's simple and the results are just stunning!
