*THIS LESSON IS INCLUDED IN THE KINDERART CLUB MEMBERSHIP* Joan Miro was a Spanish artist who made drawings, paintings, prints and sculptures. He had a very unique style and his work featured brilliant colors, simplified forms, symbols and dream-like images that remind a lot of people of children’s art. With this lesson, students will create a cat painting in the style of Miro. Designed for K-5 (ages 5-11), this art lesson uses basic art supplies and shows you how to teach the material step-by-step. ----------------------------------- About the Author: ----------------------------------- Andrea Mulder-Slater has been an art educator for 25 years and an art curriculum developer for 18 years. She is also a professional artist and a homeschooler. In addition to teaching art and art history classes and workshops at the elementary, secondary and post-secondary levels, Andrea has worked as an educational consultant on various art education projects. Together with her mom Jantje, she created KinderArt® in 1997. It’s a website offering FREE art lessons, which has been visited more than 100 million times in the last ten years alone. That’s a lot of children affected by art! Andrea also writes about parenting, creativity and homeschooling for CBC, YMC, WDish, Today’s Parent, Creatubbles, the Association of Curriculum Development and Little Passports. Andrea’s passion lies in helping teachers and parents bring out the creativity in their children and students, even if they don’t consider themselves artists. Her detailed child-tested lesson plans are easy to implement, and are guaranteed to promote creative exploration in small or large group settings. Most of all, the lessons are effective and they encourage individuality. ----------------------------------- About the KinderArt Method: ----------------------------------- The KinderArt Method focuses on individual creative exploration. With that in mind, our lesson plans are designed to be adaptable, meaning you can use them for a wide range of ages. In this way, you can cover the same skills and techniques with all of your students while giving them the freedom to learn at their own level. So, instead of prepping for a multitude of lessons for all of your classes, you only need to prep for one. The goal is to allow your students the ability to make choices as they follow the lesson, whether it be through decisions about what colors to use or what kinds of lines to draw. Examples are included where possible to show you that even with the same set of directions, children can and will create completely unique works of art (even when the lessons are step-by-step). Allow for some independence and you will be amazed at the results. Also, the material lists often give you the option of more than one art medium. This is so you can work with what you have, instead of feeling as though you need to run to the store or order in expensive materials. One final tip: If you are short on time, simply reduce the size of the project, or - swap out supplies (ie: use markers instead of paint). Where there is a will, there is a way. ----------------------------------- Have you Joined the Club? ----------------------------------- This lesson is included in The KinderArt Club.

Hello all. This is my last "project" post for 2012 and I couldn't be more happy to end the year with such a fun project, bret not my fair readers, I have a back log of lovely projects from Summer 2012 that I haven't posted yet. :o) I'll be starting 2013 reminiscing about those lol. Recently, I posted a few of my peacock inspirational art that I was collecting for this project. The original idea came from a Pinterest post that lead me to this fun page (picture at bottom of post). I thought it was so cute, but I wanted something bigger, that involved the entire family, whimsical, but not too juvenile. So I came up with this and it sits happily in my room for me to enjoy every day before I go to bed and when I wake up. yay!! I started off with a square canvas and put a few drops of turquoise blue and then dry brushed it side to side. I added white as well because I didn't want a solid blue background. I repeated the steps until entire canvas was covered. I drew a sketch of the peacock body on a serrate piece of paper hand made a template out of it. I was easier than trying to draw freehand directly on the canvas and risking ruining it. Painted in the peacock body. Then came the fun part. I painted everyones hands, including my own and we started stamping down our hand prints from the largest hand (my husband) to the smaller (the baby). After all the hand prints were made I colored in the orange, yellow, turquoise, and black accent colors you would normally find in a peacock feather. I also painted in the eyes and nose at this point. It was coming together very nicely. After the accent colors were done, I painted in the loose feathery portion down to the body. I'm so in love with it. Obviously it's not perfect, but it definitely looks good to me. And one more time in my room. It still needs to be framed, but in the mean time I'm really enjoying. This would be an awesome project at a family reunion where each family member can stick their handprint, or at a holiday part or school event. I think in the future (hopefully we'll live till then :o) when we look back at it we'll enjoy looking at those hand print, especially the kids, since theirs will be tho most drastically changed. Here is the original inspiration for those who were curious. Cute isn't it? Source Well, I hope you enjoyed this post and I encourage you to do something like this with your family, Who ever your loved one is, make sure to spend as much time with them as possible as you never know when God will call them back. As for the latest contest I held I decided to cancel and set another one as there were only two entries. Thanks for stopping by!! -Debora
