Giraffes

This giraffe project was inspired by a lesson found at http://www.princetonol.com/groups/iad/lessons/lessons.html. The lesson was Submitted by: Tracy Albert May, Lesson Idea: It's a Jungle Out There (Henri Rousseau) .
For our version of the project, we did not use the black ink for the batik effect because we didn't have time.
First make a frame for the picture.
Draw giraffe.
Outline with black marker and add jungle leaves, etc. and border decorations.
We colored ours with pastels. The pastels really pop on colored construction paper.

Super Thanks to summer art students: Clio, Molly, Brigido, Jennifer, Julia for sharing their artwork below!
