Here's another art and craft project that Adi had got from his school. So, let me explain how we worked on it. He was given a printout of a giraffe's image and told to do something creative to make it look interesting and environment-friendly. I was like "How can you make a giraffe look interesting? All i have is a printout." Well, then I spotted an old birthday wrapping paper that looked flowery and I showed it to Adi and we both liked the idea of putting that as a kind of background for the giraffe. So first, Adi colored the giraffe in shades of yellow and brown. Then he stuck the giraffe onto this wrapping paper. But I felt though it looked good, something was still missing. That's when I fished into the Lindt Box and saw a green post card promotional that was about saving electricity and carbon. The context was different of course but I liked the message that it was giving. So, I cut it and Adi pasted it. It felt perfect. What do you think?
