paper handmade bowl design with swirling pot lid


 
Yesterday  after working with watercolor paper I was left with one very wet paper so I decided to experiment with the paper.
 
 - I placed the wet paper in a plate to shape it into a bowl and let it dry.
 
- once it dryed I started experimented with the paint.
- you can see the drops of ink, I brushed the ink with wet brush creating the yellowish background. 
- than, working in the kitchen I saw the pot lid and the idea came together to use the pot lid as a swirling base and making the lines with a brush as I turn the lid with the other hand.
SOOOO much FUN!! 
 

 - brush glue on the both top and bottom of bowl

Personal Hand, End of the Year Artwork

waving goodbye to the school year, hello summer! 
Personal HAND artproject, ,
The older classes, young teens SpcialEd, made a collage, using precut circle for the background.

his background was so well done that I encouraged
 him to glue the hand on the left of the background.
 
The younger group, 2nd grade special education,  worked with crayon only on large color paper.
They waited patiently for me to draw around their hands and then colored in and around the hand shape. This made it very personal drawing

Mother's Day art project

  " A Very Special Momemt in My Life" paper art,  was done for a class assignment about 10 years ago. The PhotoShop finish photo is of us, my first child (daughter Liron), my wonderful  mother,  holding her first grand child and me as we got home from the hospital. 
 Today, this being the first year my mother is not with us, I took it off the top shelf (where it sits, for I have no heart to throw it away) and felt the need to share.
This is a paper cover ballon combined with a empty shoe box,
On the outside color red tissue paper and inside  silver wallpaper.

Personal Art PaperBag Profolio, Special Ed School



 At the end of last year each student went home with a beautiful colorful paperbag portfolio



They worked on a 1/2 of a cardboard

I went around the table and gave each student (special Education) one at a time strips of masking tape, about 10 striped, 10 to 14 c"m long.

They pressed it on the board to form a design.
 

- first they colored with pastels
- then with gauche paint


...even when painted in one color, the masking tape form a lovely texture.


 
I cut their art work in half and glued it to the paperbag
