PRE-KINDERGARTEN . . . Our colorful forests

Forest scene by Matthew

The autumn sky is always filled with such brilliant colors and we filled our wonderful forest scenes with so many colors! The background is painted with just primary colors, but we were able to also create lovely shades of green, orange, and purple everywhere the watercolors blended together. To create the bark for the trees we drew random lines on brown paper and then cut the paper into strips. We are still learning how to control our scissors properly and any irregularly cut edges made for the most realistic looking trees! The adorable animals were drawn separately and then the entire scene was glued together as a collage.

Here are a few more examples of our artwork. To see all of our forests, check out our home page of artsonia.com with this link...    http://www.artsonia.com/schools/school.asp?id=114839
