Colored Pencil Yarn Bundles
This is a great project for students to learn how to create value with colored pencil. I see yarn bundles, but other students have seen elephant trunks, abstract trees, Dr. Seuss theme, knees and legs with colorful stockings, layers of rock. I find it interesting that many of the students were wearing the exact colors they chose for their project. Working with analogous colors. Thank you to Art with Mr. E and they are beautiful!
Also, colored pencils were Lyra for younger (harder lead but still blend-able) and Prismacolor for older students (leads break easier, but blend beautifully).
