As soon as I stumbled upon contemporary artist Eloise Renouf's whimsical landscapes I knew I wanted to incorporate it into a project somehow. For 1st grade it came in the form of a fall tree collage. Students used warm colors to give their trees an autumn appearance.
Our first learning target was to use size and proportion to give the illusion of space and depth. The second learning target was to use overlapping to create the appearance of depth in their collage as well. Students worked in their sketchbooks to come up with as many different line designs as they could for their tree branches! I love the variety!
