Kandinsky Abstract Compositions

In art class, the second graders have been studying the artist Wassily Kandinsky. Kandinsky is a famous artist that has been called the father of non objective art. We discussed how Kandinsky used color, line, and shape to create his compositions. The second graders used calm lines, active lines, geometric shapes, and free form shapes to fill their compositions. They also experimented with different watercolor techniques to create contrast in their works of art.
