Birch tree forest project
Birch tree forest project
This was a 2 week project for an art club, with students 1st through 5th.
Week 1: We painted our backgrounds learning about what colors go next to each other to blend. After we finished we used cut up strips of card board to paint with. Students would tap the cardboard in black paint and lightly run it across white paper.
Week 2: We cut our black and white paper into thin strips and glued them to the background. We then took our projects outside and painted with toothbrushes (this was by far their favorite part!) We dipped the toothbrushes in white paint and flicked them to create a white snow splatter.
