Pour Paintings- Art Enrichment Students

  • Pour painting is an innovative way to use paints to create an art piece.
  • Instead of using tools like brushes or knives to create a piece of art, fluid paints can be poured directly onto the surface, which is tilted to move the paint around.

"Monster Mama"



Third-grade artists worked with oil pastel, permanent marker and watercolor
to create their own expressive paintings. Exaggerated colors help show emotion.
Students blew through a short straw onto watercolor puddles
to make the wild hair!

Inspired by Fauvist Artist Henri Matisse and based on the book
“Monster Mama”, written by Liz Rosenberg & illustrated by Stephen Gammell.
