Last week, I introduced the first graders to one of the fathers of abstract art- Vassily Kandinsky. Students listened to Mozart as they worked, just like Kandinsky, who was inspired by music and often named his paintings like song titles "Composition V." For our project, students practiced cutting circles and experimenting with color combinations to make their own unique color study, a la Kandinsky. Some students chose to use only cool colors or warm colors, while others are almost monochromatic, or a balance of both. Well done!
