Pointillism for Primary Grades

Pointillism (1st-3rd grade)



1st and 2nd grade project
I have a computer full of art project pictures but haven't been blogging much this year. But perhaps I can get back into it with this post.
This is a center project I made available for 1st - 3rd grades. I provided students with models to work from and gave a simple and quick demonstration of the "painting" process. Using a pencil to draw in the details, students then used
Q-Tips to apply the dots. 
  

3rd Grade


I'm not sure where the idea came from but here is a website with a similar picture and and explanation of the process.
