| Wassily Kandinsky | Circle Painting |
Grade 1 and 2 students created abstract drawing inspired by Wassily Kandinsky's circle painting. They studied what "abstract" means with looking at Kandinsky's painting. We
learned that it is an abstract piece of work because it does not depict
something we immediately recognize. Students were asked to create their
own abstract composition using circles. First, they worked on the composition by tracing a variety of circles. They were asked to think about placement (overlapping, touching, apart, inside)
while creating their composition. Next, they added colors using
construction paper crayons. Some decided to used solid color while
others included pattern.
When we shared the work, we noticed that
although we used the same shape and materials, each piece was unique. Beautiful work Grade 1 and 2!
