Year 1 Abstract Cubism Fish

Students first drew their abstract cubism fish after briefly looking and discussing Paul Klee's Sinbad and the Sailor painting, which uses Picasso based abstract cubism principles. We reviewed which colours are warm and cool on the colour wheel. Next they used acrylic paint in warm colours to paint their fish and then cool colour food dye wash with white oil pastel resist lines for the background.
