For this project students looked at the lines or the veins in a leaf and they drew those out with sharpie and then we added water color marker to their pictures and use a spray bottle to actually spread the water color marker throughout the background of the picture to make it look like the leaves were falling. We did this project while working on our leaf prints. An idea called doubling in art. What it really boils down to is having students work on multiple projects at once so that we can create and allow time to dry before moving to the next step and then during that drying time we can move to a project with the same concepts but in a different media. That way no time is wasted and studnets learn more media and make more projects. So far I like the idea but it dose take more planning and prepwork. However studnets have loved how much we have been able to create.
