Peace, Love, Hope in Ink

This 6th grader's ink drawing really grabbed my heart today. 



Materials at this center included:
-watercolor paper cut in various sizes and shapes (scroll and square)
-bamboo brushes
-large feathers (both ends can be used)
-Higgins black waterproof ink in three cups: light wash, medium wash, and pure black
-extra container clean water
-salt for experimenting
-examples of Japanese scrolls and language characters 
-sample grid that I created to show variety of effects "dry brush on dry paper, wet brush on wet paper, wet brush on dry paper, and dry brush on wet paper."
