a picture from the story

[Elementary School Art: Story Illustrations] Introducing recommended picture books and ways to support children who struggle to draw from imagination — Fukiko Grandma’s Art and Craft Teaching Tips

When drawing, choosing a theme is important, and some people may struggle with that and find it hard to get started.

For those who aren’t good at deciding on a theme, a recommended approach is to use a story as a reference and create your artwork from it.

Freely choose a narrative, find a scene you like, and express it in your own way through your art.

Because cover illustrations and interior artwork can influence you, it takes skill to see how far you can distance yourself from them and how much originality you can bring.

Try to visualize the setting of the story and make a habit of expanding your imagination from there.

Cool rubber band gun

[Rubber Band Gun] How to Make the Latest, Super Cool Pistol! [Easy Summer Vacation Craft]

Let me introduce a strong and cool rubber band gun.

Prepare 17 bendable straws, a clothespin, tape, and scissors, and let’s make it.

Take two straws and tape their bendable sections together to secure them.

Attach one clothespin to the gap of the joined straws to create the base.

When bundling straws, secure them tightly so the stacked pieces don’t shift.

Stack eight straws by grouping them in sets of four, extend the bendable sections, and build the structure.

When attaching parts together, make sure the straws are firmly fixed so they don’t slip.

Once it’s finished, hook on a rubber band and give it a try!
