Homework

When you are bored with nothing to do... Draw! Paint! Build something with trash or found objects!

Mrs. Ross's Advice on becoming an artist:

Did you know that drawing when ever you have extra time can make you a better artist? Practice makes perfect and we each have a different kind of perfect that makes our art unique from others art!

If you make a mistake, make it a happy mistake! Forget about what you were drawing before and quit putting yourself down! Mistakes happen to even the best artists! So.....use your imagination to take that mistake and draw it to look like something else and act like you meant to do that the whole time!

Try tracing random objects on a piece of paper and then make them into a drawing! Large buttons are always fun to transform into pigs for instance!
