Secondary Color Study with Kindergarten

These beautiful pumpkins were painted by mixing primary colors together to get secondary colors by one of my kindergarten classes.  

Painting with TEXTURE

Inspired by Vincent Van Gogh, students used small strokes of watercolor to fill in their rooster drawings with color.  Students came back with additional color and layers of line to really create beautiful visual TEXTURE all over the composition.
