Autumn Art Wreaths

These beautiful decorations were made by children at my Autumn Art Wreaths class at Katoomba Library. Using a mixture of textured painted paper and construction paper in Autumnal colours, students created the perfect ornamental artwork for this time of the year. We used some different Autumn leaf templates I premade, to trace and cut out (however I encouraged students to make their own leaf shapes too). The white decorative markings were achieved using one of my favourite materials - Posca pens!  

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

These school holidays young students at Katoomba Library created adorable caterpillar paper chains and then learnt how to collage in the style of author and illustrator Eric Carle. The painted paper used in the collages had different patterns, colours and textures, and was dry before we used it for our artworks.
