Still Life Pumpkins!

The fourth graders spent the week studying the shape, form and texture of actual pumpkins.  They drew

their pumpkins onto watercolor paper and traced them with permanent marker.  Using a double loaded brush technique, each student painted their pumpkins.  Oil pastels were used to color the table.  After the color application portion of the project was complete, each student used pencil or crayon to create a cast shadow.  I was very impressed with their work!
