For Day 4, I smoothed out the Moonlark by adding more strips. Even though Ms. Walrod was not there I just got some paper towels and the art paste then got to work. Hopefully Ms. Walrod feels better so we can paint and decorate the bird.
Day 5
For Day 5, I started making the webbed feet. I started making it with wire to make the initial shape. Then I added paper towels to create the web in between the feet.
For Day 6, I started by painting one side of the Moonlark. I changed the color of the paint because it was too dark. Next, I am going to paint the wings with the same color.
