The third graders created beautiful spring flower paintings this week in art. We started by reviewing positive and negative space. We then created our moon by tracing a circle and only coloring in the negative space around it. The next day we discussed organic and geometric shapes/lines. We decided that our trees should have organic free flowing lines for branches to make it look more realistic. after painting our tree and branches, we added flower buds using q-tips and paint. They turned out beautiful!
