After spending thousands of dollars on homeschool materials, I think it's funny that a $15 book should be my favorite! This book is awesome. The BEST part is that is in color on glossy paper!!! Now we can actually see what we are supposed to be doing. I'm only buying color, glossy art books from now on.We, 7, 9 and 39, created every project in this book and we were all pleased with our results. Basic paint supplies are needed, and I'd recommend good quality papers. The drawing is kept to a minumum so even the littlest can do it. I mounted all the projects on black construction paper and turned our hallway into a gallery. I'm keeping this book and doing it all over again in a few years, so we can see our progress.
I teach 2nd grade, and I have less talent for art than a goldfish.None the less, I've been able to help my students create some knockout work, using the ideas, pictures, and instructions in this book.Highly reccomended!
For any teacher or parent who is looking for a project teaching about colors, this is the book to have! It even introduces artists who used the different types of colors. I highly recommend this book!
This is a simple well organized guide to teaching children about color and art. It has been very valuable to me as an art teacher.
Excellent book. Great ideas.
