For this activity, I uploaded a painting done by one of my students to make a poster for our upcoming art show. I created three layers. One for the painting, one for the paintbrush I drew and one for all of the text.
It took a little bit to get used to how the tools worked, but this is what I created, which I then saved in my photos. This is how it turned out. I actually made this is less than 15 minutes. I think I will probably go back in and add some more information and change the lines of text before I actually display this poster.
I really think that elementary students will have a hard time understanding the layers and using the tools. Creating vector art is much different than just drawing a picture in a drawing app. If I did use this in my classroom, I think I would have students add text to their drawings to create posters like this. Maybe they could add their name with a painted background or something.
