This week, 3rd grade started their Henri Rousseau & Cassie Stephens inspired tigers!
Here's Mr. Rousseau's painting we're getting inspiration from!

Tiger in a Tropical Storm |
Here's how we created ours!
My first two 3rd grade classes painted a couple of sheets of orange painted paper, and then the rest of the classes were able to draw their tigers, and make some green painted paper for the rest of the project! We're going to be making a collage on blue or black paper, by creating these tigers on the orange paper, and leaves on the green paper. We'll also add a tail, so it looks like the tiger is peeking out of the leaves! Can't wait to see the finished results!
Here they are painting paper! I love all the different types of texture they added!
Mrs. Stephens has a great video on youtube, showing you exactly how to draw the tiger, and she talks about the elements of art used in this project!
Here's the link Cassie Stephen's How to draw a tiger
Mrs. Fambrough's class is doing a fabulous job!!
Stay tuned for some awesome art!
DO you have step by step directions? I love doing art project but I am not an artist. This looks like a project my students would enjoy
ReplyDeleteHi Jacy! Sure! I found this project on Cassie Stephens blog, and she has grrrreat instructions! Check her out. She's UH-MAZING! They turned theirs into a mural, so that's where we veered off. For our jungle collage, I used 12x18 black paper for the background, green 12x18 painted paper for the leaves, and our orange painted paper tigers. First we painted paper, then when those were dry we drew our tiger with Cassie's youtube video. Next class, we cut out the tigers and leaves and glued them to our black paper. I had visuals of leaves for them to look at and draw btw. I told them to glue on the tiger, paws, and tail first. Then, we cut out the leaves and placed them around the tiger, like it was stalking through the jungle. After the leaves, we used old painted paper from last year, and made flowers to fill in any remaining black spaces! Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else! :)
