You want enough dots that you can spread the paint across the entire paper. If you put too much paint it might get mixed too much and the paint colors might look muddy. You want just enough that you can mix them and see each color. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587324918870-NKDK0SAN3YIUO8WEXKK2/7D215644-FA63-41CB-86D3-944B3CCE0878.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Sensory Tie-Dye - Ziploc Slide the paper into your Ziploc baggie. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587324967518-PB5Q30RAAQABVKMJTWM6/45778B4B-0237-48A1-B99E-CFD99F4B5FB6.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Sensory Tie-Dye - Use Your Hands Use your hands to start blending the paints together.

You have to take your paper out of the bag. I would sit the paper on something while it dries. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587324952059-5H02CWMUDU154HZB16V4/7372B902-F3BE-4D92-BD02-334AB892BB3C.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Sensory Tie-Dye - Finished!

You can use the dotting method or connecting the dots to make lines. I would suggest putting your paper towel on top of something because it will bleed through onto your table if you don’t. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587251191404-C26ROPLICRR5F4BHFBL8/ED74B3A5-FCFD-4636-9ED3-3B2A07C3A253.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Tie-Dye Paper Towels - Perfect!

You dip the paintbrush into water and then apply it to the paint. That will get your paint wet and allow you to use it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587251194453-9MQ5S7GW5CBI3WJM2HCN/EF280E95-82FA-4493-87A8-54192E74A3DD.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Tie-Dye Paper Towels - Begin! Go ahead and start adding the colors to your paper towel. The colors will probably spread out because the paper towels are absorbing the water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587251185379-SFY6TBWVLCL7WC27C7IY/D95C2456-D96D-4869-8BB0-EB488DF2EA0E.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Tie-Dye Paper Towels - Color Choices You can start by adding colors but if you put the wrong colors next to each other they might look muddy. Think about what colors create other colors. You have you primaries: Red, Blue and Yellow. You can mix your primaries to get your secondaries: Orange, Purple, Green. It would look awesome if you put red and blue with purple in the middle. It will look like those colors are blending together. Be creative and experiment! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1587251150628-1N17ND3ZT1PUNJMGH63O/78792C0C-CE2F-4474-A8A6-0D8E26043FF9.JPG Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Tie-Dye Paper Towels - Let It Dry After you finish painting, you will need to sit it aside to dry.

Each area we need to fill with a pattern. A pattern is simply something the repeats over and over again. For this project you can talk about shapes and line. What are the different shapes? What are geometric shapes verses organic shapes? You can talk about the different types of lines. Straight lines, curvy lines, horizontal lines, diagonal lines, zigzags, dots that make lines, ect. There are many options. The rule with this section is… You cannot have the same patterns next to each other. Explore! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584892510501-QUNFGHHL7ZGRPJY7ULTM/IMG_9890.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Hand Print Patterns - You're Getting There!

The smaller the paper the smaller the fish.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760068972-UMJ0JGSUECVPRMCCT2NL/IMG_9800.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Folding There are four big folds in this project. The folding can be hard for younger kids so you might have to help with these parts. For the first fold, you have to take one corner and fold it to the opposite side of the paper. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760070207-79AT1PETKVBZPKDXJNV1/IMG_9801.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - It should look like this. Notice you made two shapes! What shapes are they? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760069911-P3OL0OROQPA2VGYX75FO/IMG_9802.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Two Shapes I always tell my students to find the two shapes that we made when we did that fold. (A triangle/rectangle) Our goal with this next step is to separate those two shapes. There is only one line connecting them. Use the scissors to separate those two shapes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760071482-Q3N22122JAFRVPVM3DD6/IMG_9803.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Two Shapes This should be how it looks. Now sit the rectangle to the side because we are going to focus on the triangle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760071123-N45IW07V9M2OYXFSS514/IMG_9805.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Open It Up When we open up our triangle we will see that we have one crease line. Our next fold is the hardest fold of the project. There are two corners not touching that crease line. They need to fold in and touch that crease line. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760072654-5Z0FYH4E1FO29SOSMU0M/IMG_9806.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Line It Up Make sure when you fold the line in that it lines up with the crease line. After you do one side do the other. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760072543-K39UMMJLAVE3K8VQOOEJ/IMG_9807.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Correct!

Now we have three crease lines! At the middle crease, fold it in half. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760073546-CG7BPWWYF4CSE4W62IDN/IMG_9809.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - See the triangle? Put it in front of you like so. Make sure the folded side is facing towards you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760074180-2BL2SKBKLBN728A4N3QA/IMG_9810.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Dots! This part is really important. We want to make 5 dots along the crease line. These dots should be in the middle of the crease line. We don’t want to go too close to either end of it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760075048-F8WG6XQ9AENDBHXP07H1/IMG_9811.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Draw Lines From those dots draw lines down towards you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760075338-Z4V0BK67NY25RHHK40J4/IMG_9812.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Cut The Lines You need to cut all 5 lines. While cutting it is important to remember you don’t want to cut past the crease line. We only want to cut the lines we drew. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760076422-527P4VPFQ2LW9KPYK0FN/IMG_9816.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Open Up.. When we open the triangle up again we should have something that looks like this. There is a middle part and two flaps on each side. The middle part has a big side and goes down to a smaller side. The big side is the head of your fish. You want to draw eyes first so you can turn around the first if you need to while decorating the other side. This is where the creativity happens. If they want to make eye lashes or eyebrows, go for it! Maybe fish don’t have them but it is their fish. You can even tell them about scales (the skin of a fish). They can draw scales if they would like. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760077827-6MMW0GV17K87YFRGJ6G8/IMG_9819.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - What can you decorate? Notice I made patterns. Patterns are things that repeat over and over again. Ask your kid for an example of a pattern. It could be shapes, lines, colors, or even dance moves. As long as it repeats. They can decorate that entire middle section. If we look at the sides, there are two flaps. Decorate one flap but leave the other blank. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760077813-XL6FTRGVU97V38Q8G8AR/IMG_9820.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Glue! Here is where we start to glue. That flap that we didn’t decorate is where you want to apply your glue. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760079490-LNVG56KHTQVJ2PJF218I/IMG_9821.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Dont be afraid. Put glue all over that triangle flap. We want this to stick together well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760078984-MHTA81FM5RNGX22833HY/IMG_9822.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - The Last Fold This is the last fold of our project. After we glue the flap we want to flip it around and put the other flap directly on top of it. You will have to line it up all the way down to the tip of the tail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760080772-MV0D29MXONIL2EHYG98U/IMG_9823.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - The Fish Body You successfully have the fish body! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760080627-CSJOVPL345WCZ1MU39FZ/IMG_9824.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Rectangle Find your rectangle shape from the beginning. On one side of the rectangle draw this shape. The shape looks like a rainbow or maybe a big N. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760107927-SSSXHVON57EIZYXHDU1F/IMG_9825.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Cut It Out We want to cut that rainbow shape out. This shape is actually the bottom lip. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760107653-4S9MWSPL0PG51H17Y7QZ/IMG_9827.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Glue One Line We don’t want to put glue all over the shape because a little should be sticking out of the mouth. All we need is one line on the straight part of the shape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760108554-MQDRMOB7UF9K07LYWHWY/IMG_9828.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Stick It In Stick it in the mouth and press down. Give it a wiggle test to make sure it stays in. If it falls out, apply more glue. You can even decorate the bottom lip if you want. Most kids will say they want to draw a tongue or that they would like to add teeth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760108905-510IMWEPSAV3H9A5EZ60/IMG_9829.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Almost there.. Now we have the body and the lip but we are missing one important thing that all fish need. FINS! The fins are essential to how a fish moves. The back fin helps with speed, the dorsal fin (up top) helps keep the balance, and the pectoral fins on the sides help with the directions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760110279-K9FWOADFQ39Y62WOK5J4/IMG_9831.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Left Over Paper You can use the scraps from the rectangle if you would like or you can get a new sheet of paper. Draw two large heart shapes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584760110264-SV1IA4FP4WOT2YHAHIAN/IMG_9834.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: 3-D Fish - Cut and Decorate Cut those two hearts out.

It was pioneered by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. This was a time when painters were trying to figure out new methods. This method took a more scientific approach by adding color theory. It was the start to the Neo-Impressionist movement. These artists used a method of applying dots of paint in patterns to form an image. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584654007208-J8ISS6Y0S516MW3T8OVN/IMG_9763.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Mixing Color/Pointillism - Patterns A pattern is essentially something that repeats over and over. When I teach my students about patterns, we talk about what kind of things make patterns. I’ve heard kids say lines, shapes, or even dance moves. It is encouraged to dance a little if that comes up. Once you talk about it you can show them different things you can do with patterns. Rotate a line vs a dotted line. Rotate a circle with a triangle. Get them thinking about different things they can do. I strongly suggest letting them create patterns using dots on a sheet of paper or even a shiny piece of foil to get the hang of it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584659582897-RKZEOEEZKAWYSMNUFIT5/IMG_9768.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Mixing Color/Pointillism - Create Something Real Now that your kid has played with some abstract patterns, have them think of something they enjoy. They can create animals, landscapes, bodies of water, or even sunsets. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584659586196-K8MCEGNME5H948S13E0L/IMG_9772.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Mixing Color/Pointillism - Outlines This is where the black paint comes in! Artists love outlines. Outlines are lines we create around what we are drawing. Most often these lines are black but the don’t always have to be. You can create outlines using any color. Artists like to use them to separate things in their picture. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584659585784-Z8G7R6RC8BLZR24Y9V7Y/IMG_9773.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Mixing Color/Pointillism - A Beautiful Butterfly Butterflies also bring up things like symmetry. You can talk about things that are symmetrical. Look around the room and point something out. You could also talk about the difference between warm and cool colors. Why are those colors considered warm vs cool? These are just things to think about. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1584659588313-UJ6QR8HHYZI2LMLPDFP6/IMG_9776.jpg Elementary Art - Elementary Art: Mixing Color/Pointillism - The Final Product I hope you guys enjoyed this project.

It only takes one moment to capture a perfect image. One moment where the lighting is just right and the subject falls perfectly into place. — I picked up my first camera when I was 16 years old. I grew up in Long Island, New York. One of my favorite things about New York was the ability to go to concerts whenever you’d like. I made sure to always get front row so I could see the performer up close. After a while, I was more excited about the photographs I was getting of these musicians than the music itself. That was how I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up. I moved to West Virginia to take care of my grandpa and that is where I finished my B.F.A in photography from Marshall University. After college I fell into art education when I became an adjunct faculty member at Marshall University and a contract educator for the Huntington Museum of Art. Teaching has not only allowed me to help others on their creative path but it has pushed me as an artist as well. As the old saying goes, “If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life.” https://www.amandaabbottphotography.com/weddings daily 0.75 2026-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/573e04d3-ca40-4d07-88a6-d21cbfce42a4/1-229.jpg Weddings A black-and-white photograph of a bride and groom kissing during their wedding, with the bride wearing a veil and a corsage with a flower on her wrist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/d4cc6626-0a3d-4cdd-9319-ca8e8d3c193a/1-209.jpg Weddings A bride and groom holding hands and touching foreheads in the middle of a paved road, with trees and a fence on either side, during their wedding ceremony. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/5d8b08ce-476b-40c0-90b2-8ef3188caef3/1-227.jpg Weddings A black and white photograph of a bride and groom kissing, with the bride's hand on the groom's face, both under a sheer veil during their wedding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/2d9dde34-1ecf-4656-a3be-f3a52c6844eb/1-240.jpg Weddings A bride and groom share a kiss outdoors on a gray paved path, with the groom lifting the bride in his arms.

We rarely ever get our pictures taken so we had no idea what we were doing or how to pose and Amanda made us feel so comfortable while making us look amazing! Our wedding day seemed to be over in the blink of an eye and she made sure to capture every special moment for us to look back on. I was an anxious mess on my wedding day so if you book Amanda in the future just know that photographs will be one thing you can check off the list to worry about.” -Katie Lively https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589258649182-2SKG647GSKU2YEAIJ0MW/image-asset.jpeg Testimonials - “Amanda was the photographer for my wedding on June 8, 2019. It was a folk-style outside wedding along the Greenbrier river complete with glass mason jars with tiny lights and an old timey band. Amanda captured everything perfectly. She was extremely professional and went with the flow. Her photos are full of life and color and truly captured the look and feel of the whole blessed day. My husband and I couldn’t be happier. We framed many of them and smile every time we look at them. I felt like I got to share the experience with Amanda and not just hire her to take photos. That meant a lot. Her price was beyond reasonable for the incredible quality. I recommend her as a photographer for any event, especially outdoor weddings. I was and am 100% pleased.” — Jamie Lovejoy https://www.amandaabbottphotography.com/family daily 0.75 2026-01-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/a742ed48-07be-441b-ba9a-6ba00eb66376/mandk-250.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/865bc1b5-ce14-4e2a-b2bc-b315ec40b2be/hessfamily-183.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/18636957-0b91-45d3-a1a5-ad13f41e4ce7/baby-67_websize.jpg https://www.amandaabbottphotography.com/new-page daily 0.75 2026-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392664962-3ZU492ZHZ1VU72KBTBDT/_DSC3195.jpg Portraits A woman with wavy hair wearing a white off-shoulder top and jeans standing in an empty parking lot with lamp posts and a building in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392691695-4L7XS43TS2PVV5051RSD/_DSC3202.jpg Portraits A young woman wearing a white off-the-shoulder t-shirt and blue jeans stands outdoors with her hand in her pocket, looking over her shoulder, with a modern building in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392667495-DBS060NL47WGLRUMA7X3/_DSC3185.jpg Portraits A young woman standing alone in an empty parking lot, wearing a white t-shirt, blue jeans, and brown ankle boots, with a distant gaze and her hand resting on her hip, overcast sky in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392685965-R3V10WLH4EW4SSPFHS1Q/_DSC3199.jpg Portraits A young woman with blonde, wavy hair wearing a white off-the-shoulder top and blue jeans stands in an outdoor parking lot with a large blue building and a lamppost in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392665520-CCAZFTAVN9J70T4LFQ0P/_DSC3187.jpg Portraits A woman standing in an empty parking lot, posing with one hand on her hip and the other hanging by her side, wearing a white shirt, high-waisted jeans, and black high heels, in black and white photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392692520-BOYH85NN20KMO00RWM8K/_DSC3225-2.jpg Portraits A young woman with wavy blonde hair leaning on a concrete barrier, wearing a white off-shoulder top and blue jeans, looking to the side with a serious expression. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392664830-O4VRGTTULR9UB3A44CI2/_DSC3194.jpg Portraits A young woman with blonde hair in a white off-the-shoulder top and blue jeans stands outdoors in a mostly empty parking lot with trees and a cloudy sky in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392696185-YVUUM9I6BT8AXPZUEI9T/_DSC3200.jpg Portraits A young woman with blonde hair wearing a white off-shoulder top, blue jeans, and brown ankle boots standing on a rooftop parking lot with a city building in the background. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392709152-AZP8H029SICTGDVIJT5L/_DSC3300-2.jpg Portraits A young woman with blonde hair wearing a white off-shoulder top and blue jeans standing next to a wooden planter filled with colorful flowers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589392710403-USC9APFIRRZ4ZMHWZAM6/_DSC3320.jpg Portraits A smiling woman in a white off-shoulder top and blue jeans stands next to an orange and white scooter in a city alleyway with brick walls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3209a096925c55d82be2c3/1589393418722-NRDCDCO3RPPTJA6893UB/small6.jpg Portraits A woman wearing a large black sun hat with a wide brim and a black dress with small floral patterns.
