Durer's Rhinos

Deep Space Sparkle: Durer Pattern Rhinos

2nd Grade did a great job drawing these awesome pattern Rhinos. We watched an awesome video on Durer's Rhino and discussed his work as a class. Students discussed what elements of art stood out in Durer's work and how this print is special.



After class discussion, students went straight to work creating their own sweet pattern rhinos.
They turned out so cute!

When their work was dry, students glued hearts to each palm. 










They turned out pretty lovely!
