PROJECT 1 - Water bottles were dipped in tempera paint to stamp a background design. Artists used strips cut from blue grocery bags to create petals and painted water bottle caps for the pistils.

PROJECT 2 - Artists used newspaper to create landscapes.

PROJECT 3 - Boxes from pizza, waffles, pop tarts, macaroni and cheese, and more to create portraits.
