Kandinsky art projects

Wassily Kandinsky, Untitled, 1936.

Image via Wikipedia Wassily Kandinsky 1866-1944 Materials: lids, cd's, etc. for circles & tag board geometric shapes for tracing. I usually have kids use black crayons for tracing, which provides a black resist line when using watercolor paints. (Black crayons are easier on the budget too in a 25+ classroom.) But this time, with fewer kids, we used sharpie markers. Some painted with watercolors, while others used tempera. Trace lines and shapes. Then paint. Special thanks to Mrs. Smith's…

Kandinsky was an artist who combined colors, melodies and philosophy. Get inspired from this great artist with some Wassily Kandinsky art projects for kids.

"Technically, every work of art comes into being in the same way as the cosmos — by means of catastrophes, which ultimately create out of the cacophony of the various instruments that symphony we call the music of the spheres. The creation of the work of art is the creation of the world."
