Grandma Moses

Second graders learned about the folk artist Grandma Moses. They created a landscape and learned how to draw a dimensional house, show distance, create cast shadows and make silhouette figures.

They start by practicing how to draw a dimensional house on an Art Skill Sheet.

They use colored pencils to color in their buildings...

and blue chalk pastel to define the hills and create cast shadows. 

Watercolor paint completes the sky along the horizon line.
Stop by next week to see how they finish off their work.
