The goal, objective and purpose, is to cover the core standards for art education by teaching students how to up-cycle, recycle, and reuse materials from our environment to demonstrate visual art and greening our culture. This workshop involves the student hands-on creating a three dimensional (3D) one-of-a-kind art project that depicts wildlife in nature using a handmade pre-assembled unfinished tree branch stripped of its bark and mounted to a wooden base. The student will paint and add accessories to their artwork. This workshop provides basic fundamentals about the core learning standards for art while also providing a therapeutic alternative in helping the young and the old to improve their manual dexterity, hand & eye coordination and critical thinking abilities.
