Story Art: Connecting Literature and Art

August 30, 2015 by ami Leave a Comment

Story Art: Connecting Art and Literature with art projects from picture books

You can teach anything with children's picture books:

Science.
History.
Writing.
Math.
Cooking.
And Art. Especially art. Because picture books are an artform. 

I'll be writing a Five Day Series this week about connecting children's literature to art. Monday through Thursday I will be sharing four art project ideas inspired by children's picture books. On Friday I have a wonderful resource to share.

Day 1: Rainbow Puzzle Collage Project inspired by A Rainbow of My Own

Day 2: Ladybug Mixed Media Collage Project inspired by The Grouchy Ladybug

Day 3: Cut Paper Monsters for Ed Emberley Books

Day 4: Oil Pastel Fish inspired by Hooray for Fish!

Day 5: The Giant List of Story Art Ideas

Don't miss a day in this Story Art Series. Subscribe to Walking by the Way and get updates via email! 

Find more art projects based on picture books on my Story Art Pinterest Board.
