click here to watch chalk art video
This 4 minute video is a great one just to sharpen your saw and enjoy the creativity, but it's a wonderful discussion-starter, too!
click here to see CBS spot on Julian Beever
This interesting 5 minute feature by CBS tells more about Julian as an artist and how he accomplishes his work.
Discuss with your leaders:
*Is the perception of this final picture the true reality? How is this similar to each person's personal paradigm?
*Why is it important for this artist to begin with the end in mind?
*Could he reach this amazing final product without doing each small step along the way?
*How is persistence important for long-term projects and goals?
Do with your leaders:
*After watching these videos, your students may be inspired to use colored chalk. Why not give them some and set them loose to create on the playground? Maybe they would like to write a quote, draw a scene, or decorate a habit. Having time to create is a great way to sharpen the saw. You may want to have them begin with the end in mind and create a draft on paper first.
