Blindfold Drawing

I have been very busy with Charlotte Community School for Girls and have been unable to post new challenges. But, this week, we are going to try a new one at school. It is a variation on other challenges we've done, but a fun one. You need a partner, a blank piece of paper or posterboard, a black sharpie, colored markers and a blind fold. Each person should blindfold themselves and use a black sharpie to draw on the paper or board for 3 minutes. You may draw whatever you like. Then, switch papers and do the same thing again. Once the 6 minutes are up, take off the blindfolds. Exchange papers again. Use the colored markers to finish your masterpiece. Send us the pictures!

Hands Free Art Solutions

Ok, I have gone back through old emails and hopefully retrieved those that were not posted in a timely manner. Here are the solutions sent for the art challenge in December:

Gerrick did an awesome job!

Tyler heard the details and immediately threw out most of the items and decided one cup of watercolor, a straw, and a piece of paper was enough materials for him. He then took the straw and used it to drop the paint on the paper and then used it to blow around the paint into an "explosion"! He made ornaments with these when he was done. Excellent art, Tyler!





Chloe (11), Tessa (8), Teo (6), and Deva (3) created some superb hands free art. You should be proud!
