For this project, our 7th and 8th grade artists explored and analyzed visual elements in a range of abstract artworks, with a particular focus on the work of Wassily Kandinsky. Students learned about the difference between geometric and organic shapes and the way shapes and colors impact mood in a work of art. Students also practiced analyzing the use of balance and rhythm in abstract compositions, and ultimately created mixed media abstract artworks of their own.
