Spring is Here! Still Life with Flowers

Usually at this time of year we would be working on the last of the winter themed projects, but with the weather so warm and the daffodils coming up, I decided it was time to skip ahead to spring!

Today we worked on drawing a still life: a vase with flowers.

We began the project with the kids following my instruction to draw a vase and a few flowers. Once they got warmed up, they were given free reign to create their own flowers any way they chose. The only thing I insisted on was that they add at least 5-7 flowers to create a nice full bouquet.

Once they felt their compositions were complete, they added color using colored pencils.
Welcome Spring!!
