Miro Inspired People in Motion





Today we took a look at a book titled Shapesville by Andy Mills, Becky Osborn, and Erica Neitz. This is a wonderful book about being happy and proud of who you are and respecting those around you. The illustrations are characters made from many different shapes, sizes and colors emphasizing the point of accepting everyone for who they are.
Next, we looked at some work of Miro. We discussed what a drawing might look like of a person standing still with straight limbs and what one might look like of a person in action. Students then drew an image of a person in action in oil pastel and finished it off with brilliant watercolor!
