ART HERO, Susan Hawes – Ms. Birdwell's third grade

Susan Hawes inspired Mrs. Birdwell's third grade class with images of classic comic book covers like these: http://www.coverbrowser.com/covers/all-star-comics. Susan even created her own comic book cover which is also on this page. The students were delighted to think of themselves as a comic book hero with their own special powers. They first pencil sketched their design and then spent countless hours meticulously coloring each square inch with bright, bold Sharpie makers. The results are stunning, funny and include a story that tells what you can't see by just looking at the cover.
