Young Artist’s Club: Aboriginal Art

Our Young Artist’s Club studied aboriginal art last month.  And what a sight to see their aboriginal masks!

Our young artist’s took cardboard boxes and paint, and engineered large, over-the-shoulder-style head masks.  They could choose to embody their spirit animal, a nature object, or someone they wished to honor.  Check them out!

We had a cat:

A dog (whose artist is inside, poking his fingers out of the eye holes to show you how he can see out):

And a squid, complete with fluttery, paper tentacles!

If you made a large-scale mask, what would you make?  I think something about weather would be really cool!
