Today, October 4, 2016, we stared painting pictures of the outside. This is called a landscape. We did BIG brushstrokes. We mixed primary colors. We made sky and ground and we made the color green. Last week we finished our Family Portraits. Landscapes are different from portraits because they usually do not have people and portraits are about people.

We started paintings of the outside at night. We did the moon and the ground. We also did the sky. First we drew the moon and then we painted the sky around the moon. We read a book about a little girl who wanted to play with the moon. This helped us to see our choices for drawing the moon. We mixed yellow and blue to make a little green.

Some of us started painting our horizon lines and our landscapes. Also some of us finished working on our self-portraits. To add to our self-portraits we cut out shapes with pieces of color paper. This is called collage or mixed-media. We were using the colors to show our feelings.

We are awesome because we have learned how to mix colors; because we use our imaginations to create different things. We have learned to make self-portraits using mixed-media and using expressive colors and realistic shapes. We used color papers to paste on different shapes for our self-portraits. Before that we practiced drawing realistic facial features before drawing it on the portrait project.
