Mail Art + Pen Friends = Dear You Art Project
Reading the great comics the 6th and 7th graders at Arivu School in Mysore, Indian have made for their friends in Estonia! The comics are full of adventure, humor, and tell so much about the artists' life and personality. I'm loving them! Thank you to Anand Sampan, Samanvitha Rao, Heidi Ruokoniemi, and Pramod Stephen for creating a safe place for children to creatively express themselves!
Dear Monkeys!
It was a very sunny and hot day in India today. The Arivu kids are almost ready to start their summer holiday.
We have given your string drawings to their teacher and they will do an exhibition before giving the artworks to your friends. They all are waiting to get the drawings and know you all!
The houses/huts painted this time are the Arivu school buildings that your friends chose to see through their viewfinders. It is so warm here that they can study with the windows open and often outside in the huts.
Uncle Subbu's car, which was parked outside, was another popular subject today, especially among the boys!
The hot sun, flowers, plants and even butterflies were also found today through the viewfinders.
Greetings from your Indian friends!
Dear Mooste friends,
It was very hot and sunny today at Arivu school. The summer holidays are already starting here as you are entering spring.
Around Arivu school there are some rice fields and many of your friends chose to see them through the viewfinder. There are also palm trees and other types of trees as you can see in the artworks. The playing area of the school as well as the school buildings have also found their way to the artworks.
Before going for holidays, they will make an art exhibition of your February artworks. They are all looking forward to see them and know you all.
Greetings from your Indian friends!
