SPACE Wallpaper Art!

Today I was looking through google, trying to find something really creative that we could do for Space Art. I was inspired by some of the wallpapers that include space symbols - like planets, aliens, moons, stars... I thought this could be a good place to start... but lets extend ourselves and make it our own!

Here are the steps for creating your own Space Art Wallpaper :>

Step One:
Using a piece of scrap paper, practice drawing some simple space objects. Look at some of these images below for inspiration. JUST REMEMBER - you will be drawing these objects again and again, so it is up to you how detailed you make it!





Step Two:
Take a piece of A3 paper and fold it 4 times into rectangles (eg. fold once in half, then again, then again, then again!) You should end up with 8 rectangles. (To make it MORE detailed, fold it again! More work, but a detailed end product!)

Step Three:
In ONE of the squares, create a pattern with some of your chosen objects - it may be the same space object drawn again and again (such as stars in different colours), or it may be a group of space object in a pattern. Here is a simple example: 


Step Four:
Now unfold your paper one more square and repeat this pattern.



Step Five:
...And again!

Step Six:
...And again!!!


Step Seven:
Now think about colours. Once you have finished, PLEASE take a screen shot and blog it with a link to these instructions - your art may inspire others!
