What a remarkable difference it makes when you view the art from the correct angle! It actually looks like there is a giant hole in the pavement filled with terracotta Lego figures.

This phenomenon is known as " perspectival anamorphosis", which means that the artwork will look 3-dimensional when viewed from a specific angle, but will appear totally skewed from other angles. " Anamorphic drawing" is another way of describing these types of 3-D pavement drawings.

Anamorphosis was a technique discovered in the early Renaissance, when artists painted ceilings to depict towering architecture and a floating menagerie of figures, some appearing closer and others appearing to be higher up, as if they were inhabiting an actual 3-D space. Anamorphic perspective flourished well into the Baroque and Rococo eras.

A classic example is the ceiling of this Jesuit Church in Vienna, painted by Andrea Pozzo in 1703:

Reading Trove: Spotlight on Literacy #13 - Origami Birds

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It's spring time - a time to watch the birds and flowers bloom. A great time to use our reading skills to figure out how to make some birds of our own. Here are directions for making some folded birds.

Origami is the traditional Japanese art or technique of folding paper into a variety of decorative or representational forms, as of animals or flowers.

You can use the birds to make a bird mobile if you wish -- but for now, here are the directions for making birds.
You will need some 6x6 inch square pieces of light weight paper (or if you can get origami paper that is the best). But using what you have in the house works too. Just cut into square pieces.

And then follow these directions to create your flock of birds. These pages can be printed and stapled into a book.

If you want to make a mobile you will need some string and a stick of some sort (a clothes hanger will work too), add some string for hanging and then hang your birds from the stick (or hanger).

If you want to learn how to create some other animals or birds you may want to visit the Origami Instructions and Diagrams page on the Internet at https://www.origamiway.com/.

Emory Global Health Institute COVID-19 Children's eBook Competition

Coronavirus -19 (COVID-19), a highly infectious and potentially deadly virus, was first identified in patients in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has rapidly spread around the globe. The virus has caused massive disruptions in daily life for persons from all walks of life and age groups, and it dominates media coverage and personal conversations. Suddenly, individuals and families are facing stay-in-place orders, travel bans, sickness and even death among family and friends, concerns about job security and finances, and the list goes on.

During times of crisis, young school-aged children are particularly vulnerable to anxiety and stress. The COVID-19 pandemic can be scary for this age group. Children can be supported by providing age-appropriate information on the situation, guidance on actions to keep them safe, and reassurance that many people are working to fight the virus and end the pandemic. The information should be simple, brief and balanced with facts and appropriate reassurances. Age-appropriate books are an excellent way to provide information to children on Covid-19, but there are few available.

EGHI invites interested writers and illustrators (or aspiring writers and illustrators!) to write and illustrate a children's eBook aimed at providing age-appropriate information on the COVID-19 pandemic. The eBook content should include age-appropriate, factual information on COVID-19, reassure the reader they are safe and that it is ok to feel upset, and describe actions taken by medical professionals and others. Other content could include behaviors to help them stay safe and healthy such as appropriate handwashing techniques, social distancing, healthy diets and rest.

TARGET POPULATION

The target population for the online children's book is ages 6 - 9 years and in any geographic or cultural context of interest. During this period of childhood, children are beginning to understand more about their place in the world, starting to think about the future and demonstrating more independence from parents and families. They are also showing rapid mental development, becoming less focused on themselves and more concerned for others and learning to describe experiences and talk about their feelings. The eBook should be written and illustrated to meet the developmental needs of this age group.

When the coronavirus pandemic quarantine period began in Spring/Summer 2020, I realised that lots of people were going to find themselves at home with their children for several weeks/months looking for things to do. So I decided to post a draw-along video every Tuesday and Thursday that parents could watch with their kids and, hopefully, make some nice pictures. They have proved very popular, garnering millions of views across the world. On 21 May 2020 we broke the Guinness World Record for the largest online art lesson when 45,611 households drew a whale with me. From September 2020 lockdown gradually began to ease and kids started going back to school, so I decided to move the #DrawWithRob video slot to Saturdays at 10am BST/GMT so that kids can join in with my Saturday Art Club. And then in August 2021 as life returned to (something like) normal, the videos began to be released slightly more sporadically. But I'm still going! Keep an eye on my social feeds or sign up to my newsletter here to find out when the next video will be released.

Here are all of the videos (scroll down the page). Feel free to watch and share them with anybody and everybody. I'd love to see the results, so please send me your pictures on social media using the hashtag #DrawWithRob. I am @RobBiddulph on Twitter, @rbiddulph on Instagram and robbiddulphauthor on Facebook.
Oh, and please subscribe to my YouTube channel too.

I'm delighted to say that DRAW WITH ROB is now an incredible activity book series (every page features perforated edges so you can easily tear out and display your art). The first book is a Sunday Times number one bestseller, the winner of the Sainsbury's Children's Book Award 2020 and was shortlisted for Children's Illustrated/Non-fiction Book of The Year at the British Book Awards 2021. The second book, Draw With Rob at Christmas, is also a bestseller and was the WHSmith Book of the Month for November 2020. The third book, Draw With Rob: Build A Story, the fourth book, Draw With Rob: Monster Madness, the fifth book, Draw With Rob: Amazing Animals, and the sixth book, Draw With Rob at Halloween, are (guess what) bestsellers too! They are all available to order here.
