My upcoming K-4th art show is going to be called Secret Garden. It will be all things flowers, bugs, gnomes, and fairies. I decided to try an incised plate print with 1st grade creating fairy doors. We looked at a ton of examples, and the students were excited to create their own. Here are my teacher examples. I will post student work in the near future. The plan is to add in a little color using colored pencil and to cut them out.
After looking at the examples of Fairy Doors, I had the students do a quick sketch to work out their idea for their door.
I had students dab their paper with a moist towel before printing their plate.
They reapplied the marker before printing their second image.
They recreated their incised plate next.
They used brown Crayola marker to cover the door.
I encouraged them to color in a vertical direction to mimic the boards on the door.
