Toucans really put a lot of thought into their questions on what they seen in the collages then took a look at the pictures/collages together and shared our thoughts, ideas and feelings on each art piece!

2023, KoreaCommentExperimenting with marmor colours
2017, 6th Grade, Dear You Art Workshops, Finland, CanadaCommentWe tried marmoring colours. Pupils did different experiments with other colours as well. They added for instance dishwashing liquids on colors and/or used wet papers & salt.
That really made a mess, but it was worth it and they helped with cleaning. The group enjoyed last lesson of this school year a lot.
I saved all mini paintings for the next year, when we can somehow continue the work and draw on them.
I feel very grateful for our collaboration. Thank You both!
Enjoy the summer!

Here now. Feeling silly ; )

Some students could actually hear their heartbeat and their blinking and breathing as we tried it the second time... some just got a bit silly after seeing their "now" drawings.
It was a fun experience, but I think I would have preferred to do it in smaller groups of students, so that they maybe wouldn't be as easily influenced by one or two "silly" students.
