We can’t talk about Island life without mentioning the sea. The Year 3-4 students have created beautiful waves using watercolor paints. We have learned about different tones of blue and how to express waves.
During our exploration, we discovered the various shades and hues of blue that exist in nature. We observed the colors of the ocean, from the lightest sky blues to the deeper shades of turquoise and navy. Inspired by this, we used watercolor paints to replicate these tones and bring our waves to life on paper.
We experimented with different techniques to capture the movement and texture of the waves. Using brush strokes and blending techniques, we created dynamic and flowing waves that reflect the energy and beauty of the sea.
Throughout this process, we learned not only about color but also about observation and interpretation. We studied how waves form and observed their shapes, patterns, and the interplay of light and shadow. We then translated these observations into our own artistic expressions, using the language of color and brushwork.
The result is a collection of stunning wave paintings, each with its own unique interpretation of the sea. We are proud of our achievements and are excited to share our artwork with others.
This project has not only allowed us to explore our creativity but also deepened our appreciation for the beauty and importance of sea life. We have learned to observe and appreciate the wonders of nature and express them through art.
