Dragon, Unicorn and Castle Art Projects

The Wednesday Pint-Sized Picasso class worked

on Castle, Dragon and Unicorn artwork.

These fun art projects were inspired by a wonderful art blog called, Art Projects For Kids!

I love researching art... 

looking at books at the library, 

looking at art blogs, 

using my imagination, 

hunting down fun ideas on the Internet...

 all of these things help me come up with a fun

art schedule each month.

The research and planning is almost as fun as the art itself.

I love what I do!!!

For our castle picture we first painted our background with tempera paint.

We drew our castle with white oil pastel on black construction paper next.  We cut the castle out and then painted it with square shaped sponges and grey paint.

After the castle finished drying we glued our castle to the background painted paper!

Our mythical creatures were drawn using a template for the head.  After drawing the rest of the dragon and it's features we outlined and colored with oil pastel.

Ferris Wheel Art Project For Kids

Weekly Wednesday class was a fun one!

We did a Ferris Wheel art project.

We started out with our Ferris wheel template and then drew in all of our

lines with a ruler.

We gave our Ferris wheel all kinds of details and traced with sharpie before painting

with tempera paint.

Our final steps were cutting out Ferris wheel chairs, adding people and

polka dots.

Ferris Wheel Art Project

 

I always enjoy teaching art...  but there are projects

that come along

that

make me

GIDDY!!!

 

This is one of those projects!!!

 

I love ferris wheels...  and I thought the Creative Kids would love this project!

 

I was inspired when I found a circus themed pad of scrapbook paper!

 

We drew our ferris wheel and then outlined our project with sharpie.  We then painted with tempera paint, sponged on a polka dot sky and added paper chairs!

 

Want to go for a ride?

 

I SURE DO!!!
