For the past few weeks, the 5th graders have been working on these beautiful watercolor paintings. We learned what a silhouette and landscape was first, then sketched out a landscapes. I encouraged them to keep it simple but let them branch out from trees if they wanted. After that, they painted their sky in beautiful watercolors, the color of the sunset or sunrise.They could paint right on top of their pencil drawings.
Next, they used either black tempera paint or sharpie markers to make the silhouettes. Most turned out beautiful!
