Inspired by a post on ink creatures at
a faithful attempt, I decided to do some of our own during Intermediate Art Club (Grades 3-7). Students each recieved a piece of thick white sulphite drawing paper, half a straw, and a bowl of India ink with a brush. After blobbing the ink onto their paper with the brush, they blew hard through the straw in different directions. Their shapes/creatures/hair emerged
! Details such as eyes and fangs were added with Sharpies.
