| Misery Bird in flight |
I am totally in love with these art projects for Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy created at book club!

| Snow Queen's forest |
PROJECT/ Recreate one of the Snow Queen's events from the story. The results? Misery bird in flight, the Snow Queen's forest of ice and snow, and the Wintertide Clock. Sadly, I forgot to take pics of all the compositions :(
MATERIALS/ To recreate this project, students draw their design with a white crayon. Then watercolor over the crayon. The crayon will 'resist' the watercolor and stay white. Lastly, sprinkle with salt to get the snowflake effect.
Looking for more Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy activities?

Can you please explain the art project a little better for me. How did all of the black lines to get in the background?
ReplyDeleteThe black lines are just a concentration of the one watercolor. When the salt is added, the watercolor will create the snowflake effect that causes the pigment to pool in certain areas - and that is the darker tone you are seeing. There is no black color added. Hope that helps :)
