After school group paints barn in the snow

We took on a challenging project again and the group really excelled! This design is painted on a 5"x7" pine board. The students drew the design then used a scribe to add detail to the barn and shed. They learned how to wash on colors and even mastered some patience in the 3 day process to complete the project.


 We used a gift I recieved as the "original" and went from there. Trees were a bit tricky but everyone got the trees looking great and of different heights. Then there was the spattering of snow to finish the work off. What a fun mess. Everyone signed their work and as far as I could see there was not a frown on any face--far from it.


I am posting this larger than normal to be able to see the detail in the work. Hard to believe the group are 4th and 5th grade students.
