My students in my special education classes created these AMAZING mixed media hearts for their Square 1 Art papers!!

I LOVE how they came out!! 

This took 2- 40 minute art classes to create with a little left over time each class.

First, students traced a heart on 80# paper, then glued pieces of pre-cut tissue paper with watered down white school glue, overlapping any of the following color combos-red, pink, purple, yellow, and orange.

On their Square 1 sheet, they then traced their heart again and drew lines with oil pastels in whatever colors they wanted coming out from the heart, then painted over their lines with watercolor paint creating a resist.

Once dry, on day 2- the hearts were cut out, glued in place on the Square 1 sheet, and either red or pink oil pastel was added around the rim of their cut hearts!! ❤️❤️❤️
