Contrasto

Kayla is creating an intricate design utilizing a specialized material that is 2 surfaces of white and black "paper" stuck together.
The design is drawn onto this surface and students use an exacto knife to cut away the white layer to reveal the black layer beneath.
It is a tedious process that requires a lot of time, patience and attention to detail.
If you need to work on your fine motor skills or patience, this is one way to do it with obvious results!

  1. I think this is such a neat picture! It's almost in its own genre of art... not to mention Kayla's piece is beautiful!

    Yes, I need to work on patience - when are you open?

  2. I think everyone (not just us) at times has that patience issue...
    On the flip side, at the end of the year we are throwing paint on
    fabric again. I'll let you know so you can come and get your
    frustrations out! ha.

  3. I posted to your ice pictures on Wednesday, but it looks like it did not show up. The art project of the student is a great pic. It definitely shows some of the hardwork our students are doing.
