K-1 Painting - Exploring the Brushstroke

To extend the painting process and increase the exploration of the brushstroke, the
children were often asked to take a break and work on a very large mural. They
discovered many more ways to move their bodies shoulders, elbows, wrists and
finger joints, in order to make different brushstrokes.

The brushstroke is the artist's

signature; no two signatures are
alike.
Artists using their shoulder joints
to paint large areas on the mural.
