3. Day 2: Continue teaching the drawing of different patterns. Offers student to create a gallery of repetitive patterns in special chapter of a book.

Each section student fills with different sample of repetitive pattern. Encourage students to

Drawing patterns is meditative process, it increases learning abilities.

NeoPopRealism philosophy for happier life: 1. Be beautiful;

9/7/2017 NeoWhimsy Egg (Easter), Grades 3-5, adapt. 6-8, NeoPopRealism ink/ pattern drawing | Art Lesson Plans: NeoPopRealism Ink Pen Drawing: GRADES 3-‌ 2. Be creative & productive; never stop studying & learning; 3. Be peace-loving, positive-minded; 4. Do not accept communist or any other totalitarianism's philosophy; 5. Be free-minded, do the best you can to move the world to peace and harmony; 6. Be family oriented, self-disciplined; 7. Be free spirited. Follow your dreams, if they are not destructive, but constructive; 8. Believe in god. God is one, it is harmony and striving for perfection; 9. Be supportive to those who need you, be generous; 10. Create your life as a great adventurous story.

About what the NeoPopRealism philosophy for happier life stands for.

To bring the peace to the earth, it is time to unite all the peace-loving people, to stop the use and production of the heavy military equipment and weapons of mass destruction, such as war ships, war planes, artillery, nuclear bombs, etc., in every part of the world, without any exception, once and forever.

It has to be an international law, according to which any person of any country, in any government, responsible for use (or attempt to use) the heavy military equipment in any part of the world to kill people, would be imprisoned for the rest of life without possibility of amnesty, as the mass murderer. All sales of the heavy military equipment worldwide should be stopped, as well as production of new military heavy equipment, as part of this future law.

To keep this planet eco-friendly and beautiful, and people happy, we have to say 'good bye' to some irresponsible peoples' bloody toys. ~Nadia Russ (08.08.2014) **** If you have any questions or suggestions, contact the lesson plan developers: neopoprealismpress@mail.com [mailto:neopoprealismpress@mail.com] Read : http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/Zentangle/internet/Zentangle-Rick-Roberts-Maria-Thomas-Design-OriginalsSuzanne-McNeill-Sandy-Steen-Bar-814191 [http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/Zentangle/internet/Zentangle-Rick-RobertsMaria-Thomas-Design-Originals-Suzanne-McNeill-Sandy-Steen-Bar-814191] /.
