Kindergarten has learned all about the famous (and Mrs. Garvin's personal favorite) artist, Kandinsky. He was a primarily abstract painter that believed art was like the rhythms and beat of a musical composition. We listened to classical music while we "danced" our paintbrush around the paper. Once dry, we used found objects like cardboard and bottle caps to print to the beat.
We looked at several of Kandinsky's works and talked about how abstract art can look like many different things. One personal may see a person, another a rainbow and another a dinosaur. In abstract art there really is no wrong answer. Our kinders topped this project off with "I see" reflection quotes.
They turned out colorful, Kan-din-sky would be proud!
