Touch the Dandleions and Make Wishes
Finding dandelions in our schoolyard is not hard to do. Picking them and making wishes is the right of every child. But how do we create that fluffy texture in our own dandelion paintings? Easy when you are a T'K Wonder Time artist with a bit of imagination!
The texture is what we feel when we touch the dandelion. Visual Texture is what we see and imagine we feel in a work of art.
The Dandelion Janet L. Niehaus
I picked a faded dandelion
And blew it in the air
It's tiny little parachutes
Went floating everywhere. They caught the wind
And danced awhile
Bending to and fro
In splendid ballerina style. Finally as the wind grew still
They floated back to earth
And bedded in the dark warm soil
To start their new rebirth. When next summer comes
And dandelions are everywhere
I'll pick another faded flower
And blow it in the air.
