A special art lesson

 Helen paints a picture.
      I learned how to paint using acrylic paints. Kristine
We learned all about canvas fabric and acrylic paints. Helen
showed us how to imagine a painting and then draw it
with pencil first.
 
 I learned to do a good job. Don't
      play with the paint! Kylie
I
      learned that I liked being an artist! Codi

Wow!  Helen brought everyone their own piece of canvas and some 
acrylic paints.

 I painted a Christmas tree. I got
      the idea from the Nutcracker Ballet story. Sean
 
 We used the paper plates for the
      paints (our palette!). Katie


 I liked when Mrs. Rochin's sister
      taught us how to paint. Katelynn
 I
      liked painting a picture of when the Nutcracker turns into a
      handsome prince. Roylee
I
      learned that you can write on canvas. Amy

 I painted a picture of the mice
      from the Nutcracker story. Aaron
 I
      learned how to draw good pictures. Ariana

I like drawing and painting. My picture was of snowflakes that taste like sugar! Kamiah

Helen and Mrs. Rochin; sisters and friends!

Thank you Helen for showing us
that we can be artists too!
All we need is:

 a lot of imagination,
a piece of canvas,
a little paint
and
some time to have fun!
