Vocabulary Words: Line, Negative Space, Overlap, Abstract


Materials: 12x18" white paper, sharpie, markers, scissors, black paper


We first traced our hands 6 - 8 times on a sheet of 12x18" white paper. Using marker, draw patterns, symbols, shapes, etc. that reflect your personality. Problem solving is part of this project, as students must decide how to incorporate the overlapping fingers. Color the negative space in between the fingers black, and anywhere it will be difficult to get to with scissors. Cut out around the outside of the hands and glue on black paper. .
