Take a square
piece of paper and draw this beast in the center. You can do
this freehand or trace the image from the computer screen (make
sure to trace the largest size).
|
 |
Next, complete
the top of his head, which is missing on the clay tile. Should
he have more hair? Wear a crown? Have horns growing from his
head?
|
 |
Add
some items from nature around him, such as mountains, a river,
trees, other animals or storm clouds.
|
 |
Finally, take some colored
pencils or crayons and color the beast and his surroundings.
Remember that the tile was once decorated with paint, which
was worn off—so you could be following in the footsteps
of an ancient Korean artist.
