Student Drawings

Check out these Project 1 drawings from a 4th grade student.  She chose to interpret what a fish swimming in something other than water and what combing two animals to create a new one would look like. Awesome Job KM!

Sonic the Hedgehog

 Art for Kids Hub posted a new Sonic the Hedgehog drawing video.  

I practiced along with the video first, and then labeled the sections for color. 

Then I went outside and drew it on my fence using chalk.

 

Finally with my sons help, we filled in all the areas with sidewalk chalk.
