mosiacs

Here is a great site to create your mosaic digitally.
http://www.gwydir.demon.co.uk/jo/mosaic/index.htm

Please do not copy any of the designs on this site, your work needs to be original, even if it's a reproduction of another mosaic, you need to draw it yourself.
A printout from this mosaic creation site is fine, as long as you created the design.

The size of the box lid is 9 x 5 3/4 inches.

For next week: pattern for mosaic and colour version for reference.

Upper School, if you would like to visit the Lascaux Caves again, the website is: http://www.culture.gouv.fr/culture/arcnat/lascaux/en/

For an interesting article about the preservation of the caves you should visit:

Please remember to bring your sketch book to art class every week.

If anyone buys omega-3 eggs, I would love to have the empty cartons for mixing paint. I can also use any empty yogurt or sour cream containers.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has a fabulous long weekend.
