Playing with Hearts

This project was all about playing with media and experimenting with different techniques.

Here's the list:

Watercolor and salt

Watercolor and rubbing alcohol

Crumpled paper with watercolor

Watercolor painted old book pages

Acrylic scraped paint

Sharpie colored transparencies

Bubble wrap prints

Oil pastel and watercolor concentric hearts with puff paint

Oil pastel blended with baby oil

Chalk pastel on black paper

Recycled painted paper and magazine pages

Phew! I think that covers it. After all hearts were created, dry and cut out, the kids could play around with which combination and layout looked most pleasing to them. And then - commence the gluing. Needless to say this was loads of fun for my whole group of Unique Art Materials students.
