We are encouraged to get our kids involved with technology in the creation of their art. Here are two sites with which I'm now experimenting. This first piece was done with a digital photograph of a student's art submitted to a website called Big Huge Labs, where you can make the digital photo into a post card, a poster, a jigsaw puzzle, or, in this case, a "Hockneyized" polaroid-style artwork. The second piece, which I want to show you here on the blog, but which the site will not permit, was done on "makebeliefscomix.com. To see the comic I made on the site, click here on http://www.makebeliefscomix.com/Comix/?comix_id=1725971C494169. This second site is very easy for kids to use, since they can pick out their cartoon characters, "nuance" their emotions, write words for them, and they're done.
Remind me to show you how to create a link in your blog so that you don't have all that HTML code cluttering it up. Isn't Big Huge Labs fun? I spend more time in that site than almost any other - except maybe Animoto.
