Landscapes on odd size paper

Here's a colorful art project done on "odd" sized paper. Keep kids' creative juices flowing by veering away from the standard size papers generally used in school. Instead of using a standard 12x18 or 9x12 piece of construction paper, this landscape was done on a 6x18 piece of white construction paper.

To make their hills interesting, the kids chose 4 different colors for each hill.

Red Cow? It must be Gauguin!

How wonderful to share with students Gauguin's colorful art where cows can be red, rivers can be pink, and trees many shades of blue.
"Art is either plagiarism or revolution." Paul Gauguin - French, 1848-1903

Now it's your turn to paint some landscapes using bright, unrealistic colors, just like Gauguin. San Benito Elementary Artists
