I love this tiny fish with the big eyes! |
(bah dum bah! I love a good -or bad- pun!)
I often struggle with formulating good lessons for my youngest students, and this mini matisse masterpiece really did the trick. I loved the idea of interpreting Matisse's mid-career painted subject matter in collage, the medium he used later in his career. My kids seem to be enjoying this, so I figured that yours would too. Enjoy!
Mini Matisse Fish Bowl Collages
Materials:
- Scissors
- Glue
- Pencil
- Colored Pencils
- Marker (optional)
- Googly Eyes (optional)
- White paper for the bowl- sized between your medium and large, mine was about 4"x5".
- 3 sizes of colored and/or patterned paper for the wall, table, and fish. Medium should be 1/2 the length of the large, and the smallest depends on the size of the bowl you are drawing. I used 6"x9", 6"x4.5", and 2"x3".
