3D Papercraft!

Kids had a blast making 3D Papercraft at Springwood Library/Hub these holidays! All it took were some scissors, glue, coloured paper, and a bit of imagination. Some of the creatures assembled were a spiky hedgehog, spooky black cat, and a fish with a slinky, moveable spine. Looking at the photos below it appears that some of those fish were very hungry indeed. 

Look down below after the photos to see video instructions on how to make your own.

But first, here are a few of the creatures made in class today:

This video by Mr. Creator shows you how to make the fish:

This video by Easy Peasy and Fun shows you how to make the spooky black cat that can stand up by itself:

 And another video by Easy Peasy and Fun shows you how to make the cute little hedgehogs!

If you have a go at making these designs, or other cool papercraft, take a good photo of it and email it to me at noliver@bmcc.gov.au to have it featured on the blog.

Have fun!

Rainbow Fish

Springwood Art Class based their fish paintings yesterday on the illustrations in the classic book 'The Rainbow Fish'  by Marcus Pfister. Students coloured their fish drawings in with watercolour pencils, using metallic oil pastel for the shiny scales. The oil pastel resists the water and watercolour paint.
