Monochrome Dot Display!

Hello there Artists!
This post goes out to Mr. E of Art with Mr. E! He inspired me at the beginning of this year when I saw his monochromatic dots! 

I loved the idea of the kids painting on the first day of Art class, (it blew their minds), and I also liked this project because, while they were learning new Art vocabulary and techniques on the first days of school, it was a really nice way to jump-start their "Art brains" again after summer break. It also tied into International Dot day! Bonus!

At one of my schools, we are participating in "one book, one school". The book this year is a community-builder (we live in a beach-side town in little RI) called "Hello Ocean" by Pam Muñoz Ryan . This inspired the wave configuration for this display! 

This all-school art lesson established a strong sense of community right out of the gate for the new school year!

Thank you for the inspiration Mr. E, it turned out wonderfully! 

 The close-ups are super cool too! 

 Thank you for visiting, and please come back soon!
