Onion Domes

Students studied the Onion Domes architecture style. We used watercolors to paint the domes and towers.  Prior to doing the painting, students tried different watercolor techniques such as wet on wet and allowed their colors to "bleed", applied salt, wet in wet, dry brush, and lifting off. 

They used a watercolor they enjoyed most.

 

 

Color Wheel Paper Rolls

Students painted the 12 colors in a color wheel.  Students did not have to put the colors in order but they were allowed to use only the primary colors, yellow, blue and red to create the secondary and tertiary (intermediate) colors.  They used Tints and Shades (black and white) to create values.
