Reflection #5- Teaching and Integrating Visual Arts

It was so fun to see all the different types of children's illustrators and be able to particpate in related projects with them. We got to see how each of them interpret the visual aspects of the design from how they space objects and even how they display them through border designs, to shapes and patterns, to magnetic art. The illustrator that my group chose was Lois Ehlert, I love the rich colors of her books and how they are incorporated into the books as a voice within themselves. In the artwork, it was the magentic art that sort of drew me to it by how detailed, yet simple the project was, especially the part with using a lightbulb.
