Designs(R) art collection and introduces a visual art instruction vocabulary with 13 fundamental art concepts, plus 10 hands-on art and design exercises developed especially for beginning artists, ages 6 - 12, by respected California artist and art teacher, Michelle Abrams. Using this inspirational picture book as a guide, teachers, parents and kids can explore basic art and design lessons together and discover the natural imagination and creativity within all of us. Michelle says, "This book should encourage parents and students to take their artwork off the refrigerator, enlarge it, frame it and hang it on the wall. Treat it as 'fine' art - that's what we do!" Throughout the 30+ years Michelle has been teaching art, she's discovered that for a few fleeting years, young children have a delightfully innocent vision of the world. If we take the time to teach them basic visual art concepts and enthusiastically encourage and celebrate their efforts, we can easily discover their natural creativity. Their open minds and unfettered imaginations, still unhindered by reality, will see nothing unusual, for example, about a blue cow, or happy fruit! During this precious time in their lives the artistic possibilities are infinite! To enjoy the complete Kids-Did-It!
