Day 1: Frottage


Our first day of class was a blast! I thought mapping the enviornment via contour drawing was a unique and exciting opener for the class, and could be a great way to get kids out of the classroom and making art that is process oriented. The drawings were used to create frottage prints and learn the printing process. Not being certain of the results until the print was completed was exciting and I think my elementary students would really be engaged in this project.
