Here Comes the Sun

I thought our Aztec Suns looked so pretty drying together. My days have been as full as my drying rack! The only space left at the end of the day was this table. 

Painting was the first step of the process, next is making the faces in oil pastel. Finally we will actual learn about Aztec culture. Sometimes it's fun to start without any art history, just process. 
My students seem more attentive after they've invested themselves into the project.
