Crafts

Directions:  Look at the above video clips.Gustav Klimt is our inspiration for the next project: WIRE TREES. Eventually you will create a tree sculpture using various wires.  Be thinking about what kind of tree you would like to create, and what will you make the leaves out of?  Paper, Beads, Feathers, Found Objects, Buttons, Sticks, Leaves, etc....

Today: In your sketchbook create a bio page for Gustav Klimt.  You may use any information that you find here on the blog, or you may google his bio too!
Carefully think about how you are going to arrange the information.  How are you going to decorate your page and include all the facts?
