Fall is in the air and what better way to celebrate the change of season then by making some apple stampin' art. Students observed some different colored apples, green, red, and yellow, and noticed how some apples had streaking of multiple colors. We then cut some apples in half and began stamping away.
While the paintings were drying, we began to talk about texture and how we can notice texture both by touch and with sight. I gave the class some cardboard and we made a textured background for our project by rubbing the cardboard behind the paper. Next, we took the same cardboard and ripped the to layer of paper off to create a texture of a basket and glued it down to the project to make a still life.
The next week it was time to put all the pieces together. The apples needed to be cut and then assembled into the basket. The final touch was stamping the word APPLE on the top to resemble a fruit box advertisement. Aren't these pictures delicious!
