The 5th Grade made some very beautiful drawings of tropical fish this quarter. I found pictures of tropical fish for them to draw from so that they could work on making them look realistic. The color did not have to be realistic. Instead, they could make creative choices with color however,they had to demonstrate smooth transitions in value changes with their colored pencils. The background of these fish drawings was done with liquid watercolor paint with salt sprinkled on top. You can see more of our fish on our Artsonia Gallery.
While we wrapped up this drawing project we had some fun and made some 3 dimensional animals as well.
