After creating our ships in a bottle we looked at another maritime artist from the MFA -Winslow Homer and his painting The Fog Warning. Students used VTS (Visual Thinking Strategies) to figure out what was happening in the painting and then we began to create our own rough seas. Using papers we painted we covered cardboard with our blue paintings and created three dimensional waves. Students learned how to curl, bend and twist their papers to create their seascape. Once this step was complete we used our other painted paper to create a boat using origami. Students decorated their ships with sails and flags.
