Explore the tradition of Mexican Amate bark painting as students create their own fantasy landscape paintings. Using fluorescent colors will provide students the capability to create intense contrast as well as provide increased motivation through a well-liked medium. Try crumpling (and then ironing) the paper before painting to create a bark-like texture.
