This first term in Art, the boys and girls
from 5th and 6th grade, have painted toucans in the
jungle, in Henri Rousseau’s style.
In this project we have learnt lots of
things about Henri Rousseau and how he painted and lived. Each one created
his/her painting, following a rubric.
First we draw the toucan. Then we painted
the toucan with crayons.
We draw leaves and painted with a different
variety of watercolor greens. We also painted the sky with watercolors. We
outlined everything and finally we shaded the leaves.
The project is very funny. It is easy and
the results are very beautiful. We like the project because there many
different colors.
