This idea came from this post ... http://marymaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/leroy-neiman-inspired-lions.html.. on Mary Making.
I changed it a little but kept the basic concept and history portion similar. I used colored pencils for the face and then added tempera paint for the main--- fun project with pretty good results... some students rushed and made a MESS but most did a pretty good job. We talked a lot about subjective color use and how simply laying colors over others will keep the one color clean and also blend to create a new color with what is under it. Very fun but i would make a few changes to how we draw the face next time.
These are great! So colourful! I see you keep your paint in Dixie cups- do you add lids after and store them that way?
