Paper cutting

This is something kids learned from the book named Picture Pie, by Ed Emberley. He used circles to be divided and cut like a pie and then make pictures of all kinds. Four simple basic shapes, cirle, semicirle, quarter circle and half of quarter ; can be put back together to make a set of more complex shapes.

These are a few like mouse, fish, dog , sharks, birds n all .. that he made.

Here's a more closer look ...



All made by the four basic shapes only, and just its arrangement. Doing these types of activities enhances the creativity in kids. They look at these basic shapes from an altogether different appraoch. There are so many complex figures too in the book like lion, clowns, flowers,dogs n cats, trees and lots more. The books uses different coloured papers, but Aryan preferred using white paper and then lastly coloring him as he wished.

Card making

Here comes Aryan's first art, which he learned from Artzooka, and made many versions of it.. :) Not the holiday stuff, but done when he was at home for more than 2 months, with his fractured leg. Its a simple card sorta thing, which we as kids used to make as a bird with his mouth open. He had made so many beautiful animals with the same concept..

Hers comes panda bear.. with his big big eyes n big mouth..



Then comes the lion with his big tounge..

And also a tiger with sharp pointy teeth..
