These kindergarten and first grade students learned about the Cincinnati artist, Tom Bacher, and how he loves to make glow in the dark paintings! Kindergarten and first grade reviewed all the different types of lines and shapes that are in his paintings. They were tasked to draw as many different shapes and lines on their paper (even overlapping some) as possible with neon Kwik Stix. Once they were done making the shapes and lines, they were able to walk up to the blacklights that were placed around the art room and see their artwork glow!
