Multi-Media Pandas









I have a wonderful group of 4th-6th graders in my 3-day art camp this week. Here are a few of their finished pandas. Pandas were done in acrylic and eyes in oil pastel. Most chose to create oil pastel bamboo with a watercolor wash background. More pandas to post tomorrow, as well as glue and chalk pastel cats and artwork inspired by the children's book, "Zen Shorts".

  1. I especially like the second from the last one because all the bamboo is gone except for one little sprig and Panda has a giant smile:)

  2. This is a very wonderful lesson. I certainly like the idea that the young artists worked in more than one media. Thanks for featuring this on your blog.

  7. Do you have a directed lesson for this? I'd love to use it with my second graders for a special project.
