There are so many possibilities for my young artists with the symmetry function (you only have to draw one side of a picture and the other side copies with a mirror of your design). This project below is on my wish list of ideas for this school year. I plan on having my fourth graders make a digital version of the face/vase figure-ground illusion that they created in 3rd grade. We will make it based on a photo of their own profile this time and use these vessels from the google art project to inspire our negative space.
