It’s always amazing to me how the process of making art takes place. These are “doodlebugs” created by our kindergarten and first graders. Each child began with a blank piece of paper and a variety of crayons. I gave them step-by-step instructions on what to draw such as “four straight lines starting at one edge of the paper and going to another edge,” and “draw five circles anywhere on your paper.” The children interpreted the instructions individually (no looking at your neighbor’s doodle!) and came up with these beautiful and unique creations.
When they were complete we viewed each doodle and discussed how art allows us to express our own talents and abilities, and helps us appreciate each other’s individuality and vision. Aren't these wonderful? Clicking on any image brings you to the gallery and lots more doodles.
