1st Grade Owl Collages

My first grade students studied an Inuit artist that creates artwork of animals from her environment.  The first graders had to do an observational drawing of an owl.  They mixed and used neutral colors to paint the feathers on the owl.  They used sharpie marker to add details in the feathers and face.  Finally, they painted a night background to glue their owl on.  They did a fantastic job.
