2nd grade Matisse Goldfish

2nd Grade 

Matisse Goldfish Paintings

 For the past couple of art classes, 2nd grade has been learning about the artist Henri Matisse, and his painting, The Goldfish.

The students first practiced drawing 3-dimensional looking containers, and practiced drawing the goldfish bowl, that they liked best. We drew the room, bowl, table, and details together, and then they traced and colored with oil pastels. Finally, they used liquid watercolors to add the final pop of color. Here are some of the finished examples!
