Jungle Animal Art
We used Crayola's Model Magic to create relief sculpture art based off of Jeannette Canyon's artwork in "Over in the Jungle." (See the Featured Artists page for more details). Animals such as sloths, honey bears, pythons, ants, and blue poison dart frogs were made with the colorful clay and then glued down to foam paper sheets. The kids loved this project and I think they turned out great! Here are a few samples but you can see all of the kid's work at this link:

Russian Art
For this project we learned about black lacquer boxes and how they are decorated with fairy tale stories, gold paint and tiny brushes. We used metallic paint on black paper and painted Russian castles, firebirds, foxes, swirly clouds, horses and flying boats. I was unable to get photos of all of the kids projects but you can check out more artwork at:

Animal Masks
Our last week of Summer classes, we made
animal masks with paint, feathers, sequins. I hope the kids had a fun
summer. I know I did and I look forward to another year of Amazing Art
Projects!
