I was asked to help howie's teacher with an art project. You probably are familiar with Eric Carle, the children's author of The Hungry Caterpillar. The kids were going to actually make the paper they were going to use for their books. I helped Mrs. Martin with the kids "making" their paper. It was different ways to color and texture paper. We did two kinds while I was there. One way was to spray paint with a spray bottle onto paper. Another way was to cover the whole paper with paint and then use the eraser of a pencil to make squiggles through the paper. Before I arrived to help, they had glues tissue paper squares onto a large sheet of paper to form another kind of texture. I really thing they enjoyed this project. I only remembered to get one photo of Howie since I was busy helping the kids make the pencil paper. Such a fun project.
