"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."
-Albert Camus
The first and second grade artists have been using beautiful fall leaves from our school forest to make art! Each leaf was inked with white paint using a brayer and then printed on black paper. Students made multiple prints on a page to create an interesting composition making sure to include a ghost print (a second print made without inking the same leaf again). Once the paint dried, bright colors were layered with colored pencil to create a vivid autumnal display.
