Erica H. shares new history!
This is a picture that I painted on Memorial Day. I used ground up charcoal and cherry juice as my medium and a stick as the paint brush. It was much more difficult than I imagined to be able to saturate the rock with color and also to be able to make defined lines as the Paleolithic artist were able to. This project gave me a greater appreciation for the images that they created.
Amber S. Beeeeautiful story!
I constructed my paint brush from raw
materials that I found around the family farm. I used a blunt stick as the
handle, pine needles as the bristles, and hay to tie the pine needles to the
stick. Since the pine needles were thick on my brush, I pulled a bunch to the
side to have a thinner line of paint. For paint I combined dirt, strawberries,
a little water, and natural raw honey from the farm. This combination worked
well and gave the paint a little color. I depicted a picture of a key and a
bee, as I am a bee keeper.
Samantha B. shares!
The first picture is of my brush and the second is of my artwork. I
would like to describe my piece: this could be the mating ritual piece,
the sun denotes time of year and the two people
and the baby above them could represent the best time to give birth.
