About this School Project (Toucans)
The students looked at pictures of toucans and observed the different colored feathers from a variety of toucan species. We talked about a toucan's proportions, and how their beak is very large compared to the size of it's body. We also looked at the artwork of Nick Gustafson, and how he likes to paint rainforests. He has several paintings of toucans. We discussed what rainforests are and how they are filled with different kids of plants and trees.

The students each drew a toucan using a paint marker. We then did texture rubbings of leaves to create our rainforest inspired background. We used white oil pastels for our rubbings, so that we would get a "magic" reveal when we added watercolor paints to our pictures. This is called a resist. The students used watercolors to paint their pictures.


Los estudiantes miraron imágenes de tucanes y observaron las diferentes plumas de colores de una variedad de especies de tucanes. También vimos las ilustraciones de Nick Gustafson y cómo le gusta pintar las selvas tropicales. Tiene varias pinturas de tucanes. Los estudiantes dibujaron cada uno un tucán usando un marcador de pintura. Luego hicimos texturas de hojas para crear un fondo inspirado en la selva tropical. Usamos pasteles de aceite blanco para nuestros frotamientos, para obtener una revelación "mágica" cuando agregamos pinturas de acuarela a nuestras fotos. Esto se llama una resistencia. Los estudiantes usaron acuarelas para pintar sus cuadros.
