Op Art Space

After discussing the concept of zentangles  and looking at examples, the class was left to create eye-catching freeform optical designs inspired by the theme 'space'. We used bright pink backgrounds for extra psychedelic effect! 

Materials:

Pink cardboard
Lead Pencils
Textas
Poscas



I laid out a few objects to trace - masking tape (tracing inner or outer circles for planets), rulers, and foam star shapes.

Chalk Pastel Barn Owls



I have to say I'm extremely impressed with results of this class, inspired by Mary Making Blog 

We drew our barn owls on brown paper bags, outlined them in black pencil/texta, added chalk pastel colouring, and then cut out and pasted the owls onto cardboard backgrounds to make them pop.
