The art room was double booked all day today and will be again tomorrow to make sure that all of my 1-5 grade artists are able to meet Will "Kasso" Condry, Muralist, to view him painting a mural in the art room "live" and to participate in a collaborative circle painting project that I am running. Busy, busy, busy.
All that were in the art room today know one thing with certainty---> Will Condry is quite incredible.
Before I fall asleep, here are a few photos from the day.

Beautiful! You don't see very many collaborative art projects by kids. Love this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful experience for all the artists! So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea of participating in a mural project while an artist is working. What a wonderful experience you have shared with your students!
ReplyDeleteInspiring post. Thank you. Would you mind if I used one of the circle painting pics on a flyer for a village children's event called 'The Big Mess' in the UK?
