Last week, 4th grade started this neat little wintry picture. I saw the original artwork on Step by Step Painting, and wanted to turn it into a 4th or 5th grade lesson!
Here's how we did it!
Materials:
We traced a circle for the moon, and then added 3 layers of white,and about 3 layers of blue. We used Q-tips to add dots of blue to the white rings, and dots of white to the blue rings. The final blue ring was just blue.
Here's a beautiful example from Ellie!
Day 2: We used a strip of purple paper to make the mountains, and painted horizontally to make the water and reflection underneath the mountains. We painted a strip of black on the base of the mountains, and on the bottom of the paper. After all of that is complete, we added silhouettes with black paper!
