Today I had a professional development meeting with all the art teachers in our district. We painted shoes. I bought these pretty blue-green TOMS and I decided on a design I could easily control. Something with clean lines and simple symmetry so that little mistakes wouldn't be as noticeable, because of course, I really wanted to be able to wear them.
I decided that paper airplanes would be fun and fill those criteria. Side note - I love paper airplanes as a doodle, but I HATE them in my classroom. They just look like disrespectful boredom .... I cringe whenever a student makes one!
I used a tiny bit of gesso and Painters paint markers in black and silver for the shading. I love the way they turned out!
I just love being able to do my own artwork for myself! Happy Friday!
These turned out great! Love them!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee! I've had a few requests already :)
DeleteYours was one of my favorite projects at the class. Simple and fun! Loved the way they turned out!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pam! I LOVE what you were using - trying to think of ways to make it work for my classes. I'm glad you got a chance to play around with art making!
