Welcome Back to the Art Room !

We are jumping right in to a project to celebrate The International Day of Peace on September 21st. Every grade level in the Lower Division is working on a different project to express our desire for peace and peacefulness. The fourth graders drew doves, using text as line. In this case, the text is all about things that make you feel peaceful. Once the text was completed, the children used watercolors to add contrast to the negative space (the space around the dove). Aren't they beautiful?!
