Underwater Scene– 1st Grade

The first graders learned about artists that make art about underwater life.

Then, they used markers and water to create a watercolor effect.  They drew the fish with water soluble markers and then used a paintbrush and water to blend the colors.  Later, they used blue spray ink to create the background.
