In April I prepared a fun project for Autty's 1st grade class
about Art. (I am a little behind in some of my posting:) so this
one is a month old) I displayed 3 differnt types of art :
Pointallism, Brush Stroke and Cube art. I then told the kids
that today we were goign to be artist and we attemped to do
pointillism painting with q-tips. The kids really enjoyed it and
took there time to make sure their pictures were full of dots.
|Here I am explaining what we are about to do. :) | This dot to
dot q-tip painting is an inexpensive craft for kids and teaches
them to take their time and learn a new techinque. This is a
good group craft I think. Check out this link to see more dot to
dot art by my daughter.:) Also George Seurat is a famous
pointillism painter, who developed the technique. His famous
painting Sunday Afternoon On the Island of La Grands Jatte took
him 2 years to paint and is comprised of millions of dots to
form the picute. It is spectacular.
