3rd Grade Art Show Work

The students look at the work of Gustav Klimt. They really enjoyed his use of patterns and color. Tree of Life was our focus piece. The black tree image was created by tissue paper, Sharpie, and metallic paper. The pattern rainforest was created by watercolor and marker.

    1. The patterns start with a water color wash background. They then draw out the trees and outline with sharpie. They used regular markers to color it in.
