Autumn leaves crayon rubbings and paper cuts. Adult art class student display, 10/21/19

What fun to make our own leaves!

Color a paper in a riot of colors and ways.
Cut out several general leaf shapes from another paper. Try freehand cutting. Keep the background piece too.
Attach this background cutaway sheet to the colored sheet. You can make a black sheet too for this!
With the leaf papercuts make an arrangement on a blank sheet. Trace around the arrangement.
Place a clean sheet on the arrangement and make a crayon rubbing.
Color your tracing page as you want.
Make a list of some more ideas and variations for this.
You can also use real leaves, as you see here
The leaf shapes are also like trees in a scene themselves.

Fall leaves and scenes - children’s drawing class display, 10/01/19

Without real leaves we drew some make be'leaf's. Then made freehand leaf cutouts for a crayon rubbing drawing. We also used the cutouts to trace and color.
