Primary Color Blocks
Inspired by the work of Piet Mondrian students practiced using a ruler to create a variety of squares and rectangles within a grid like format. Primary colors using watercolor paints, were added and black was used to provide balance.Folk Cat
Using direct drawing as a jumping off point students created their own cat pattern. They used this form to trace and cut out a "fabric" (Old wall paper samples) cat. Using a hole puncher they made an seam/outline that they laced with yarn. Last details were added with buttons and thin black sharpie.
Sunday
Fishy Fishy
This direct drawing project was inspired by a pinterest posthttp://www.artprojectsforkids.org/2012/03/koi-fish-painting.html
I expanded the project and added a few additional details.
The students really enjoyed creating their own Koi like fish using crayon resist and watercolor paints.
