In this engaging art project, students will create a starfish on canvas using a scratch technique that adds intricate details to the body of the starfish. The activity starts with painting the canvas using acrylic paints, focusing on the application of thick layers of paint. This method is essential for the subsequent scratching phase, where students will use tools to etch into the thickly applied paint, revealing layers of colors or the original canvas beneath to create dynamic textures and patterns.

Ellen Matzke does a fantastic job working with my son Elon. She keeps him on task, has loads of patience, and manages it all while introducing him to new art concepts. He enjoys his time when he visits. Evan Wischik
