This week we used Keith Haring as our inspirational artist this week. We liked this project because it allowed the children to share their ideas with everyone else. Each student drew a Keith Haring style image and then we passed them all around for everyone to use. It was a nice way to start a class and it helped everyone get to know each other a little bit better by sharing their drawing with everyone. Keith Haring has such a great way to add action to figures to make things look like they are moving. It was a good way to show the kids a quick easy way to make drawings appear to have movement. Since we were talking about movement our second project we made paper helicopters. The children really had fun with these.
