Textured Papermaking

One of my favorite illustrators, Eric Carle, has inspired me to continue our work in collage. We made these stunning papers today using printmaking brayers, sponges, liquid watercolors, salt, texture rubbing plates and paint scrapers. The floor's still wearing visible swipes of paint, but I think the experience was well worth it. I can't believe how creative our students are! Next week, we will start cutting these up to create our collages.
