For a successful art journey, foundational skills are KEY.

These Fall Tree Collages are a great way to reinforce basic elements of line and color, strengthen precision and coordination skills through collage, and practice drawing different line types.

And what better way to hook your young artists than with TWO kinds of paint?!

In this autumn lesson, students use watercolors to paint a cool-colored background, create fiery warm painted papers with a stippling technique for textured leaves, and use lines to make their own unique tree branches.

Your students will love creating these trees, and your bulletin board will be a gorgeous display of bold fall colors!
