Last week and this week in our outdoor sessions we are reading the book “My Forest is Green” as our inspiration.  Then we go on a search to see what is in the forest that we can use for our pictures.    With all of our findings we are doing Happa Zome which is Japanese art using hammers/mallets and leaves, etc.

To find out a little more about Happa Zome click here.   It was amazing to see the pigments from our objects transfer to our paper after we hammered on them! What will you discover in your backyard or forest? What happens when you hammer on them?!
