After creating our oil pastel backgrounds, Kindergarten is using cut paper to create collages. These collages, like our backgrounds, are based on 'Starry Night'. We used green paper to create a horizon line. Also, warm colored rectangles to create the basic shapes for our buildings. In Kindergarten we use dots of glue..."Dots, dots, not a lot!" I can't wait to add our details and windows to our beautiful cityscapes!
This week Kindergarten made portfolios for holding our Artwork and have already learned our classroom rules. Now it is time for our first project based on an artist. Who better to begin with than Vincent Van Gogh? We will drawing the background for a cityscape based on the Starry Night. Kindergarten has now used oil pastels! Look at our mark making and use of line. This is going to be a great year!
