About
For Earth Day, students can create an engaging art piece using the
eucalyptus tree as inspiration through a pastel and watercolor resist
technique. They start by sketching the distinctive eucalyptus foliage
and outlining it with oil pastels, which act as a resist to watercolor
applications, highlighting texture and form. Applying watercolors over
the pastel outlines, the sketches vividly come to life as the watercolors
bleed into the paper while the pastel areas remain intact. This project
not only fosters creativity but also encourages environmental
awareness by reflecting on the role of trees in ecological health.
Perfect class for children ages 7-9 years old.
90-min class
Children will be exposed to a variety of mediums and work on building up new skills.
Dress for a mess!
We often use acrylic paints, which can be very difficult to remove from clothing.
