Create a bright "master" design with geometric shapes. Use it to make amazing reverse-symmetrical drawings and mirror images!
1.
Fold paper in half and open it up. Cover your art area with newspaper. Fill half of your paper with color using Crayola Slick Stix™ super-smooth crayons. Place colors in either geometric or organic shapes. Cover all of the white space, up to the edges and the crease.
2.
Refold the paper. Remove the newspaper so you can work on a hard surface to draw half of a picture. You MUST begin AND end your outline shape on the fold. The first time you try this, choose a simple shape, such as a butterfly or half an apple.
3.
Press hard with Crayola Colored Pencils to outline your shape. Begin at the folded edge and end on the fold. Make your lines thick. Add lots of details inside your outline.
4.
Open up the paper. Inside you’ll find a complete image! Half of your background is colored and half is white! This kind of drawing, which has two halves exactly the same (but reversed), is called symmetrical.
5.
Glue your drawing on a large piece of construction paper to be your frame.
