We looked at Kandinsky for inspiration on our liquid watercolor project!
This was a great way to experiment with color mixing again!

Circles and color mixing


 






We have had such a great beginning to the school year experimenting with color and mixing two to create a third. We have been talking about the circle and practicing drawing circles and painting with circles as well. In between all of this wonderful exploration we have been searching for letters in the newspaper with magnifying glasses, looking at leaves up close, playing outside and drawing on the sidewalk.....
Fall is such a wonderful time of year to challenge our senses. The changing colors, smells of nature and temperatures in the air are invigorating. The lound crunch of leaves and animals scurrying about are noises we can hear before the calm of winter arrives.
I'm looking forward to the next few months of activity.
