Tape pieces of string (widthwise) onto a plastic cutting board. Continue until you are happy with the web-like design you have created.
Tape the plastic cutting board onto a large piece of construction paper. Tape along the top and sides of the construction paper. DO NOT tape along the bottom of the construction paper.
Insert a piece of Crayola Marker and Watercolour paper into the web through the opening at the bottom.
Place a small amount of paint on each paint tray. Place a brayer (roller) in each tray.
Roll the brayers back and forth a few times to spread the paint out evenly on the brayers and in the trays.
Roll one of the colours over the web. Continue rolling until you are satisfied with the effect.
Roll the other colour over the web. Continue rolling until you are satisfied with the effect.
Gently remove the paper from the web and place it on a flat surface to dry.
Create a second print and clean the rollers at the same time. Insert a new piece of paper into the web and roll the brayers over the surface without adding more paint.
Gently remove the paper and roll over the surface with the brayers until all the paint is removed. Use both brayers without re-rolling them in the paint.
Compare both art works.
- How are they alike?
- How are they different?
- What patterns do you see?
- What happened to the colours? Why?
Mount the work on a piece of contrasting construction paper.
Give the work a title.
