Grade One: Mixed Media Artwork

Grade 1 students learned that they can combine media into one artwork. In our first piece, student drew buildings, then painted them with watercolor paint, then printed the lines that they drew using found objects, like card board pieces and tubes.

Now that have mastered that skill, their applying it to a project of their own design.

Some students found it a bit challenging, as they couldn't just draw what they wanted; as the lines would get printed and they could basically only print straight lines. But they were able to plan ahead and think about images that would work best being drawn with straight lines. They created some beautiful, graphically bold images.
