Kimberly says she chose this project in support of our mission to engage students’ “intrinsic curiosity in nature, one another, play, and creative expression.” At once, she aimed to spur “the joy and physicality of making marks,” and “enhance the experience of texture by picking our own paintbrushes.”
“Elementary students are masters of abstraction,” Kimberly says. Their enthusiasm for the project was obvious, with joyful splatters of “ink” flying through the air!
