Today, Art 78 students began painting their Amate bark paintings. Students made their own paper using recycled pulp. Then, they created landscapes reminiscent of traditional bark painting scenes, depicting personal life events.
Mrs. Didlake discussed characteristics of these paintings including stacked objects, many objects and characters placed closely together, unusual size relationships, bright or unrealistic colors, black outlines, repeated borders and leaving some paper unpainted.
Students included lots of personal imagery.
