Kindergarten: I am Dali self-portrait drawings




More examples of student artwork coming this way, but here's a super adorable one for now. This lesson on Surrealist, Salvador Dali, was a lot of fun and so easy for young students to understand, thanks to the awesome book above that I heard of via Cassie Stephens equally awesome blog. Every page is a surreal picture in itself so I had the students look for what was surreal about each picture. My basic definition of it was art that looks real, but couldn't happen in real life. As a fun tribute to Salvador Dali, students drew self-portraits with Dali's famous mustache. You can imagine all the laughs that ensued when I showed them my own example;) Stay tuned for more drawings!
