Third Grade Perspective Landscapes

This week in the art room, third graders learned about how to show perspective in a landscape. We talked about the horizon line, which is the line that separates the earth and the sky, and the vanishing point, which is the point on the horizon lines where two lines appear to meet.

Then we drew our own landscapes with pencil first then sharpie. Students used watercolor colored pencils to add some color. These were fun for students to use because once water touched the area of color, it turned into a watercolor paint. Check out some awesome results below!
