Guest Artist: Linnae Cappellino, Mrs. Martin's Kindergarten Class


Urban Chickens, Acrylic Paintings Thank You Guest Artist, Linnae Cappellino

This project began with a visit from Carmella The Art Room Chicken and an explaination as to why raising your own chickens helps the environment.  The children were delighted to meet Carmella and I think the feeling was mutual! They were certainly inspired by her feathers and the many beautiful details of the patterns and colors of her wings. Thanks Linnae and Carmella for teaching us about urban farming!  

Ms. Linnae shared her chicken painting with us and taught the children how to draw a chicken using a step by step method.  She emphasized shapes and the children were thrilled with their own ability to draw a chicken by focusing on shapes and lines.  The children created two beautiful drawings and picked their favorite one to paint!
