Christmas Art Lesson Red Fox Christmas Art Project Christmas Art Activity

This Christmas Red Fox Art Project has students explore collage, pattern and composition while creating a cozy, festive fox. It fits classroom art lessons, holiday art or a winter woodland theme.

Students follow a guided drawing tutorial, then use collage techniques to layer textures and patterns for a rich, mixed-media effect. It is a low-prep lesson for art teachers, classroom teachers and homeschool parents, and it helps students build confidence in drawing while trying new techniques in the lead-up to the holidays.
