Circuses of triangle figures - acrobats, clowns, animals. Art lesson demo drawings, student work, adult class 3/28/16, kids' class 3/29/16

Cut a sheet of card stock into quarters.

Invent  an acrobat or clown figure in each piece of card stock, (vertical format), by just drawing triangles. Make sure the joints have width rather than two points touching.

Invent four animals by drawing triangles on card stock quarters in horizontal format.

Color and/or decorate these figures.

Cut them out.

Arrange them on a separate sheet of paper. Tip them down with a few strategic spots of glue stick. Color/embellish the scene further.

Alternately attach paper sticks to the back of the cutouts and hang off accordian fold backdrop.

You may notice here that a couple of dinosaurs have wandered into one of the circuses.
