Grade 1 - Completed Oil Pastel Fish!

Grade 1 artists worked hard to make these beautiful fish!! Can you guess where they got their ideas for decorating them? It wasn't just in one place.

First, they looked at a fish made by the famous artist Paul Klee. Notice that the color of the top fish contrasts strongly with the background.

Grade 1 artists also looked at how the artist decorated the fish using lines.

Next, they looked at pictures of real fish in the Red Sea. Sometimes nature is a good place to look for inspiration! Have you ever seen patterns or shapes on coral reef fish?

Last, they added their own creative ideas to make their fish truly unique! See below for some of the finished artworks.
