Start with slight watered down black tempera paint to begin creating shapes (we created hearts and circles) then connect those shapes with a variety of lines (straight, wavy, zig-zag, loopy, swirls, etc.). Then fill in shapes with color. Get every last one! Once you finish your mural... go help another table! After the installation was over we FINALLY got to take them home! Some detail shots COLORS! Collaborative art is one of my favorites to bring into an art room. I love that the students have to depend on each and everyone to complete a successful painting. I have done this project over the past couple years, (was actually my first posts way back when! wow!), but never have attempted it at this scale (we decorated the entire front entrance of your school for Heart Disease Awareness, 15 murals in total!)
