Diffusing Paper Flowers in a Vase.
Teaching 850 young Artists needs corners cut some days! Here’s a quick Art lesson that requires
minimal prep time. I need that in a day
of 175 children. Students receive a
Color Theory lesson on warm and cool colors and complimentary, and have fun
experimenting and watching colors blend.
Color diffusing paper is a fabric-like paper with great
texture. Our class used Mr. Sketch
watercolor markers and colored a circle target design on the paper. We the brushed on water and watch the colors
flow and blend to create spectacular patterns and effects. Tye-dye was our
inspiration. More marker can be done once paper is dry to add more vibrance. Once complete, we dabbed a
drop on glue and attached to a van Gogh vase poster drawing. Great end of the year project for Art Show decorations.
They also look great hung in windows,
from ceilings, on bulletin boards or anywhere that could use some extra color.
Roylco makes these flowers, and also Sea Life, Leaf and
Butterfly Color Diffusing Paper and make a great nature craft or seasonal craft
at School and in the classroom. I also cut up large sheets of diffusing paper
for our our designs with Snowflakes, Geckos, etc. Great for all ages and skill levels.
