I found some old wallpaper in my garage and I used the back of it to draw on, but any roll of paper will do – perhaps you could use the back of some Christmas wrapping paper if you have some left over.\u00a0 I also used charcoal and chalk pastels but you can use felt tipped pens, crayons or coloured pencils if you like.\u00a0 I chose some classical music to draw to because it doesn’t tend to have any lyrics ( it is better if you choose some music without words that could distract you from the sound of the music).\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I stuck my piece of wallpaper up on my lounge window with some masking tape.\u00a0 I got my piece of charcoal ready and switched on my music.\u00a0 The first piece of music I chose was ‘The Flight of the Bumble-bee’ by Rimsky Korsakov.\u00a0 It is a very fast piece of music so my lines quickly buzzed around the paper like a bumble-bee.\u00a0 I added some colour afterwards to make it more interesting.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I enjoyed doing this so much that I decided to do another one but to much slower music – this time I chose ‘Aquarium’ from Carnival of The Animals by Saint-Saens.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are quite a few famous artists who have made works of art to music- you could look up:\u00a0 Wassily Kandinsky<\/strong> – ‘Compositions’ series, Piet Mondrian<\/strong> – ‘Broadway Boogie Woogie’, Andre Masson<\/strong> – ‘Automatic Drawing’.<\/p>\n

Give it a go, it’s fun and easy to do. Mrs. Madden<\/strong>. ( I tried to put this post on my page but it didn’t come out very well so I did it again on here.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
