when a song inspires art.....

This past rotation of art at the junior high a student was inspired by a song that a fellow student was singing in class.......Can anyone guess the song?







If you guessed Pontoon by Little Big Town you are right. I love the Christmas lights and the little ladder.

painting without a brush

Students are experiementing painting with liquid watercolors at the various school. Ms. K taught them how to use a straw and with their mouths blowing the liquid watercolor around the page. The results are so cool...... and can be used in so many ways.... I see ink monsters, cut up into artist trading cards, etc.....

First the JP student blew the paint around and then folded the paper.... symmetry
