Summer Nights- Eric Carle and Vincent Van Gogh

Looking Forward to Begin ART LESSONS this Monday!!!

Here is what I have in store for the youngsters.....

MONDAY will be Eric Carle Paper Designing. After learning a little about Eric Carle (some of the older kids already know a lot about him ), the kids will experiment with paint and gadgets ( marker tops, sticks, etc. and even monster trucks) to add texture to the wet painted paper.  

While the Textured paper dries, we will read The Very Lonely Firefly by Eric Carle and have a blast creating a firework line drawing using Metallic Gel Sticks that shimmer when you add water !!! So fun!  

TUESDAY we will continue with Eric Carle and create our own Firefly Collage with the paper 

created the day before. 

WEDNESDAY-  DAY OFF TO CLEAN!! 

THURSDAY we will dive into Starry Night! After a short book about this wonderful artist, we will take a look at Starry Night and create a line study using Metallic Pastels on Black paper. 

FRIDAY WILL BE WHEN THE PAINT COMES OUT!! Using metallic paint, we will create our own Starry Night painting. Yipee! 

Don't forget to wear older clothes or bring a smock! Class is 1:30-4:00. Please bring a snack too!! You can pay me the first or last day of the week, whichever is easiest for you!  Thank you, Ms. Michelle
