1. Ohio Kids Art- Folk Art Chickens

Amazing ohio kids art – folk art chickens!

Oh how I’ve looked forward to this class.. I am very easily amused and I think chickens are one of the weirdest, coolest animals. Did you know chickens are related to dinosaurs?! True story. For proof, click here. 

I think they look alike, don’t you?

In class today we learned about folk art and viewed some farm related examples of North American folk art, including sculpture and quilts. We sketched chickens in 3 different ways:

Then we chose our favorite chicken sketch and drew the design on large construction paper. We used oil pastels and baby oil to blend bright colors together.

Finally, we collage-d paper squares around our chickens to create a final folk art ‘quilt.’ Here are our final images!
