AABC means Art-A-Baloo Crew

Elementary art classes and resource materials for the classroom art docent, homeschool parents and youth art enthusiasts. AABC focuses on the Elements of Art: Color, Line, Shape, Form, Texture and Space and touches on some of the Principles of Art: Movement, Unity, Harmony, Variety, Balance, Contract, Proportion, Pattern and Rhythm, bringing these art characteristics together in an instructional piece that can help the teacher easily give instruction and help create the expression of art in a child.
