Monochromatic artworks are those that contain only one color. 4th Grade artists chose one color and created tints of this color by adding white and shades by adding black. Tints were painted around the moon and then the shades after a ring of pure color. The final step was to use an eyedropper to drop a little India ink on the edges of the paper and blow it towards the center using a straw to create moody tree branches.
