Above are pictures of a crayon engraving that I created during art. To create a crayon engraving canvas I took a piece of paper and colored it thickly with different colors. Then I painted it with black tempera paint. While the paint was drawing I drew two pictures to represent a card for Mother's Day. Once the paint was dry, I took the pictures I drew and traced them onto the black canvas. Then I scratched on the line to create my pictures. Then I folded the canvas to be turned into a card.
This type of activity can be used during English. Students can make this type of art to become a journal cover. In this journal students can keep all their writing assignments. This journal can then be returned back to them when they graduate. This will give them a great reminder of how far they have come since they first started school.
