3rd Grade Organic "Melt-Art" Sculptures

























These amazing "melted" sculptures began life as a plain old plastic cup. After adding a bit of colored permanent marker and a bit of toaster oven "magic"....they were transformed into very unique organic sculptures. Each artist's piece is a little different than everyone else's, which we love! This lesson builds on a previous lesson in which our third graders learned about the artist, Henri Matisse and his love of organic and geometric shapes.
