Presents art projects that can be made with programs such as Paint, Paintbrush, ClarisWorks, or Kid Pix Studio, and with such traditional art supplies as scissors, paints, glue, and crayons
With a computer paint or drawing program, a printer, crayons, and a little imagination, kids can explore the world of color and the endless design possibilities of a computer by crafting multi-media art. This four-color activity book combines this tool of today with an old favorite—the crayon. Kids will learn how to print out and paint a picture frame; use a mouse to create a Matisse masterpiece; create a kite of rainbow colors; and more while learning about primary, secondary, and complementary colors. Crayons and Computers includes ideas to extend crayon creations beyond the confines of paper and into cyberspace.
