Horizon
March 1st, 2010 by ninja
This afternoon, Mika brought an armful of artwork home from school. I love this one in particular, where the class has been introduced to the concept of “horizon lines” for the first time.

Is it a collage? The trees are popping out!! Nice, love the colors she chose.

Yes, it’s a collage. They used white crayon and watercolors to paint a landscape, then drew (birch?) trees, cut them out, and glued them on top. I think it’s an exercise to show the kids how objects in the foreground can obstruct the horizon, but it continues nevertheless in the distance.
