Second Grade Cityscape Paintings

Second Grade artists finished their outstanding Austin cityscapes!  We used basic shapes and lines to draw the unique city skyline of Austin with black crayon.  We included the Colorado River, otherwise known as Lady Bird Lake, in the foreground.  Then we looked at different Fauvist artists - artists that used bright imaginary colors during the art period of 1904- 1910.  Students took this inspiration to paint their cityscapes with imaginary colors.  Here is their display on our big art bulletin board.
