This week, we learned about Ernst and the process of
frottage, where textured objects are placed beneath paper and used to represent an image. Once again, I was very impressed by the gorgeous results!:

| Warming up with leaf rubbings |
 |
| More leaves |
 |
| We checked out materials at hand and then planned our landscapes. |
 |
| We used all different textures to represent the things we wanted. |
 |
| The final products in one moadonit! |
 |
| The kids at the second moadonit practice with leaves. |
 |
| Focusing on the subject of the composition... |
 |
| Adding to the negative space, or background, and remembering all we've learned about line, texture, space, and composition. The finished product? Dazzling. And all created by a nine year old girl. |
 |
| Do you see the faint leaf print fish in the background? When I asked him about why he didn't make them darker, he said they were in the distance, so he kept them lighter. I was so excited about his grasp of perspective! We used different textures to create the illusion of moving water, scales, and seaweed. |

| This week and last week's work. The kids were very excited and so was I! |
