PRE-KINDERGARTEN . . . The colors of fall

Forest scene by Henry

The autumn sky is always filled with such brilliant colors and we filled our wonderful forest scenes with many colors of watercolor paint. Everywhere the watercolors blended together on the page we were surprised to have made even more colors for the rich background of our forests. To create the bark for the trees we drew lines on brown paper and then cut the paper into strips. We are still learning how to control our scissors properly but any irregular edges actually made for more realistic looking trees! The adorable animals were drawn separately and then the entire scene was glued together as a collage. Our autumn leaves were added with a sponge dipped in paint.

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
