This is called the wet on wet technique and definitely has a tie dye effect. After all was dry, and very hard to see in the photos (sorry)...the students wrote a story about their creature.....and wrote it following the contour (shape) of the creature....creating more emphasis around the creature. this turned the text into a line element. so fun!rappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338181163639963727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1274501945353923182.post-78666086460644764552012-05-14T16:29:54.735-07:002012-05-14T16:29:54.735-07:00Hey Linda, the pisces style fish and the pink zebr...Hey Linda, the pisces style fish and the pink zebra striped fish, both with a tie-dye looking background- what technique is that? <br /><br />Very graphic and eye-appealing!<br /><br />~AmyAmy Jayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15334278796332451126noreply@blogger.com
