Once Upon A Time...
As a child I loved reading "The Three Billy Goats Gruff." Oh the memories! For this project you will create a part of your favorite fairytale, nursery rhyme, myth or tall tale. By only doing a small scene, it allows you to nail the details that are going to take your art from good to great!
What was your favorite story growing up?
What part of that story stands out to you?
How can you create art off that part?
What materials could you use?
