Grandma Moses is the subject of this month’s Sketch Program. Time for some fun with old-time rural folk-art. This is a great project for kids who worry about perfection and getting their art “right” – our goal is to create simple, naive looking images!
You will need to bring the following items to class:
- Tru Ray Acid Free Construction Paper – 12”x18” – 4 pieces of various colors
- Reeves Water Soluble Wax Pastels – (if necessary you can substitute regular crayons if you do not have water soluble crayons)
- Red ink pad – can be shared
- Grumbacher Filbert Brush synthetic, size 8- 1 per student (or if this brush has been too big for your students, just bring several cotton swabs)
- Wool roving – .1oz (basically, just bring any leftovers you have from our previous project)
- 1 glue stick or bottle of glue – can be shared
- 1 pair Scissors – need 1 per student
- 1 extra small container with lid – need 1 per student
- 1 everyday pencil
