3rd Grade Warm & Cool Color Landscape

To create these colorful landscapes, 3rd grade artists used a black oil pastel to draw rolling hills, rounded mountains, and a sun with concentric lines around it. We showed distance by overlapping the hills and mountains. We reviewed the warm and cool colors and the artists had a choice: warm or cool colors for the sky and the opposite for the land. Cool colors created a night sky, warm colors made it a daytime sky.The final step was to outline with the black oil pastel again, as the chalk pastel gets the outline pretty messy. These look beautiful in the hallway next to their circle loom weavings! So many bright colors!

Lesson from Deep Space Sparkle.
