Kandinsky study

First Grade students looked at artwork by Wassily Kandinsky and discussed how the artwork made them feel or what the artwork made them think about. They discovered that Kandinsky loved to paint while listening to music. They read, "The Magic Paint Box"  by Barb Rosenstock to learn about how Kandinsky came to paint this way. They learned that he was one of the first artists to create abstract art.  They also looked at his famous artwork "concentric circles" and printing their own concentric circles on their music inspired painting.
