Kandinsky is such a fun artist to teach! My Studio Art classes did a fabulous job with these abstract compositions. We used 150lb Jack Richeson student watercolor paper. Painted with Jack Richeson tempera cakes, my fave. Then used jumbo PITT Pens by Faber Castel for all the black line work, (pre-drawn with pencil using rules, tracers or freehand).
