1Opening (3 min)

Welcome to today's BibleMouse art adventure! Let's explore how we can draw things that feel different.

Texture is how something feels when you touch it. We can show texture in drawings using special lines and marks.

📌 Key Talking Points:
  • Rough lines make things look bumpy
  • Soft dots can show fuzzy surfaces
  • Straight lines can show smooth things
💬 Discussion Questions:
  • What does a soft bunny feel like?
  • How might we draw a rough rock?
