Autumn Trees

Autumn Trees

This season is so colorful and the kids loved the leaf project so much, that we decided to continue with another autumn project. We used black liquid watercolour to blow with a straw to create the stem. Then fresh leafs, ripped in little pieces were glued on the paper to create than impression of falling leafs.

In this week's project we caught the colourful atmosphere of this season. Listening to Antonio Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" we created a landscape of painted leafs. We'll continue this project next week. 

And here is the final version. 

I love these works so much that I just had to enlarge them to see every detail!

As an introduction the students watched a video about the Swiss/German artist Paul Klee and how he used balance and rhythm in art. Then we talked about his famous painting "Cat and Bird".
