Warming Up

12 year old

This is an acrylic project to help warm up students.  

I had already prepped the acrylic paper by painting it a lime green.  I wanted to show the student how painting an undercoat of color can create interesting work.

The student then created this work with only primary colors, black and white.  We used a black oil pastel to divide up the squares in the end.

Although this was just a warm up exercise, I love the results.  I would love to see her now choose one of these pears and do another painting on a large canvas.

Which one would you choose if you were her?
