Hello Rashi students! We are going to participate in this great Hearts of Hope project. The Dedham Square Circle group wants to help people feel more happy and hopeful. So, they are collecting heart drawings, and they will hang them up in stores in Dedham Square. You'll create a heart, and then ask your parents to mail your drawing to them.
Materials:
- Paper (regular size, any color)
- Drawing or collage materials
- An envelope and a stamp (ask parents for help with this)
Don't know how to draw a heart! It's ok! I'll show you on Thursday. Not a Rashi School student? Here's a cool video I found about how to do it with simple circles and a triangle.
- Draw your heart so it takes up plenty of space on the page. If it ends up smaller, add some more hearts- no one said you should only draw one!
- If you're doing a collage, draw your heart first and then cut it out.
- Decorate your heart and the page around it- make sure to really fill up the page so people have lots to look at!
- Write a message of hope and/or happiness if you'd like
- Ask your parents to send it to the address below.
I was so excited to hear about this project, because there are some famous hearts in Art!
They are by an artist named Jim Dine. He loved hearts and he made lots of paintings and big sculptures with them.
Four Hearts, 1969
The Heart, South of Naples, 1986
The Orchard, 2006
Parents: Here is the information you need to send out the hearts. Thank you for your participation!
