This is a great opportunity to show of your artistic talents! Create a drawing or painting of an official state fish for this contest. See sample previous winners below.

Check out the details for contest rules and guidelines here.
Click here for the official entry form:
Click here for the official fish list options that you can choose from. You do not have to choose the state of Georgia; you can choose ANY fish from the list.

Today in class, pick a fish from the official fish list and then use the computer to research reference images. You can choose 1-3 images and place them on a word document to print out. Then use these images to draw out your fish design. Add color using paint or drawing media.
