5th Grade Artists learned about Wassily Kandinsky and his abstract style of painting. First, we studied some of his work including Composition Number 8 and Yellow, Red, Blue. We looked carefully at each painting and noticed a trend in his work.
In our paintings we followed the rules listed below.
1. Overlapping
2. Repeating shapes
3. Shapes inside of shapes
4. Line (follow leader lines)
5. Colors
6. Run off edge
7. 3-D Shapes
8. Shapes and background areas are filled in and some are open
