Nana is here with a very quick and fun Election Day Chalk Art Tutorial. This is an easy chalk pastel you can do in under five minutes any time during an election year!

You could even time yourself to see if you can do it in one minute!

Election Day Art Tutorial Supplies Needed

Supplies needed: White construction paper or printer paper. Blue, light blue, red and black chalk pastels.

  • Begin by drawing a round, red circle for the smiley face.

  • Next draw the rays of color – just like drawing a sun – out from the smiley face. You can turn your chalk pastel over on its side to make the color stretch. Red, blue and light blue.
  • With your black chalk pastel, add eyes and a smile.
  • Feel free to smooth out each ray if you’d like.
