The little Miros from Room 9

Room 9 is awesome!

Mrs. G surely does a wonderful job teaching various techniques using different mediums and quite often already has done the project with her kids that I am about to suggest.

A few weeks ago we introduced the kids to Mr. Miro and his automatic drawing technique.
As we did in the 1st Grades, we used black colored paper and chalk pastels and then just let the kids go wild and have fun with it.

The idea of drawing random lines with your eyes closed sounds so fun to the kids, they all can't wait to get started and ALWAYS impress with their wonderful way of using their imagination.

I love, love, love this project!

The kids find so many different things in these random drawings and create the most amazing art pieces.

Horray for Room 9 and all of its amazing artists!

You guys ROCK and I LOVE spending time and making messy creations with you!

Well done my little friends!

Miro-Art-Attack on Room 9 was mirotastic :)

Little Miros

Our first session EVER!

The First Graders of Curtner started off our new art program with Miro inspired drawings.

The fun part was, automatic drawing with your eyes closed.

The little guys had a blast and once they opened their eyes their imagination went wild.

Suddenly cats, flowers, fish, planets and much more appeared after adding some color to the random drawings.

We used black construction paper and chalk pastels for this project.

It was hard to keep the little hands from smearing the chalk pastels all over the page, but the masterpieces below are proof, that we do have the most amazing little super artists in town!
