Kids Art @myartsandcreatives 2014 - "Reptiles"

"Reptiles" is a great way to incorporate most of the fun textures because they naturally have lots of unique textures on their skin.....as usual, initially students would draw their subjects and then we did a combined reptile project........I made sure to use many easy techniques!

By the end of this section, students got good hold of my main concept in drawing....everybody could draw well by then. Can see the recognizable subjects!!

Techniques: Basic Drawing,
                  Plastic Wrap texture,
                  Crayon Resist watercolor,
                  Crayon rub textures.











Our Rainbow Chameleon!









Crayon Rub textures with many household materials, we even rubbed leaf to house in the frog!












Kids Art @myartsandcreatives 2014 - "Dino"

Drawing Dinos was the second sub-module, students had so much fun drawing the dinosaurs and adding embelishments!
After basic drawing classes, kids were encouraged to do a framed art using salt sprinkled on watercolor, the textures were just appropriate for the Dinos.

Techniques: Drawing,
                  Salt with watercolor textures.

Portrait Sketches

My recent attempts for the "Virtual Portrait Class" fb group, sketches are done from photos.......everyone in the group would post their version.......it's very interesting to see various styles and techniques interpreting the same photo in many different ways!

Kids Art @myartsandcreatives 2014 - "Introduction"

Back to the Introduction class of Kids art 2014!

I started the first class with shapes, students are encouraged to draw any structure/drawing using one or a combination of them.......building with shapes is very important and a very basic knowledge that helps kids to identify the basic shape of any subject and then developing it into further structures.

Kids explored each and every shape to form a variety of subjects, most of them built a house!

Technique: Building with shapes,
                 Coloring with crepe paper.
