Moody Blues

Finishing out our study of Picasso, my fourth and fifth graders made some pretty amazing guitar collages. We discussed Picasso's blue period and how artists can relay mood through color choices. We used cardstock and painted it with different hues of blue as step one.

 

Later, we added strings (yarn) tuning pegs (popsicle sticks), a sound hole, (newspaper or construction paper) and a bridge (another popsicle stick).
Now if only these guys would make music....
