1st Graders learn about John James Audubon

Spring is here and so are the birds! You may have heard a bird or two singing out your window in the morning. An artist became very famous because of his birds is John James Audubon. He loved nature and spent a lot of time outside studying different kinds of birds. He learned how to draw realistic birds. Drawing some realistic means to make things in your drawing look real! We will be working hard over the next couple weeks to draw realistically. After we finish our drawing, we will be using chalk pastel. Make sure you don't wear your best clothes on art day because chalk pastel is hard to get out of clothes!!!
