Art or science?

Published by lapazfarm at 9:14 pm under Curriculum or Lack Thereof..., art, science

Why not both?

Today’s art project was inspired by our reading in science. We are learning about different models of the universe (open, closed, flat), “big bang” and other origins theories, and all that good spacey stuff , so we decided to get a little cosmic with our art today.

Materials: posterboard, a couple of tin cans, and lots of spray paint.

Process: get creative with it!

Results:

Superboy’s “Asteroid Shower”.

My “Distant Horizons.”

JBug’s “Earth” and “Planet.”

Gosh, I love homeschooling. It is totally “out of this world”!LOL!

(You didn’t think I could pass up an opportunity for a bad pun, now did you?)

    You are freakin’ amazing! I’m sending my kids to you for homeschooling. Heck, I’m coming with them, and you can teach me, too. Your homeschool looks like FUN.

    That is just amazing! My kids would love to do that. We have seen someone do that before. He makes amazing pictures. I like your paintings better. ;)
