"Starry Night" Tissue Paper Collage

    For this project we were to create our own version of Vincent van Gogh's "Starry Night" using construction paper, tissue paper, paint brush, gel medium, glue (stick/bottle), and sharpies (regular/metallic).
Extension Activity: 
     I hope to teach K-2nd grade, so this exact project might be to difficult for them.  For their age I would prefer doing a project similar, using finger paints instead of tissue paper/gel medium.  This way they'll be able to use their fingers and not have to worry about their tissue paper moving all over the place when they painting on the gel medium.  When it comes to doing the landscape I would have them draw rectangles/squares for the buildings, keeping it simple enough for them.
