Kindergarten students learned about the artist Kandinsky and his painting "Several Circles". They began their collaborative galaxy collage by painting circles and dots.
The 5th grade students discussed the difference between abstract art and realistic art. They studied work from Franz Marc and Henri Rousseau. They focused on animals throughout art history. Students chose their preferred style between abstract or realistic art, found a picture of an animal to inspire them, and began creating their own art.
1st grade students created a color wheel, blending colors using tempera paints. They had a blast watching the colors blend to create new colors!
