5th Grade Abstract Line Paintings

Students learned about the abstract art of Wassily Kandinsky with paintings of bright bold colors and shapes.  To begin the assignment, students had to listen to short sets of music and draw...keeping their eyes closed.  From there they used a small viewfinder to pull out an interesting composition of lines.  Students then transfered the lines to Dura Lar transparent plastic, painted and framed their artwork.  Put in the window and they are SMASHINGLY BRIGHT and BOLD on a sunny day!

Kindergarten Self-Portraits


Students learned the difference between a portrait and a self-portrait when they made pictures of themselves.
Each picture had likeness to the student as they were able to choose hair, eye, and skin color that resembled their own.
