Australian Dot Paintings
The second graders studied the art of Australian dot painting. We talked about the meaning of indigenous tribes and how people carry on traditions of those who came before them. The indigenous people of Australia made dot paintings of animals that are common to the area as well as handprints. The students traced their hands on black paper and used Q-tips to make their dots.
