Fall Tree Silouettes

As we warmed up to watercolors in the beginning of the year, we do a quick "wet on wet" watercolor technique sky and talking about different times of day. Then students use what they know about line and shape to create a silouette compostion. This year it was trees, during our fall color unit.

 

 

Warm and Cool Leaves

All elementary art teachers seem to have some sort of "fall leaf project". In this project, students not only studied organic shapes and texture, but also warm verses cool colors.

 

 

Kinder's Funny Face Pumpkins

It is that time of year where pumpkins are everywhere! What a better way to introduce a little color mixing (red + yellow=orange) and cutting and gluing skills in Kindergarden.
