  Trees in the Style of Piet Mondrian-–
The 4th/5th graders drew trees to complement their studies in Science class. 
How can line be used creatively to make a stylized picture?  How can we capture a mood using color?  How can oil pastels be used effectively?  These are the questions we will explore during this unit.  Theyhad a color mixing and blending review.  They learned to use line creatively and made stylized art.
