I'll be honest and say that when I was growing up and even through my college career as an art major, I never used to appreciate abstract art. I always thought it was kinda pointless and silly. Over the last few years though, I've really learned to love it. The more I learn about it, the more I appreciate it and I've found that it's a style of artwork that is super fun and expressive to make and kids love it too. It's a great way to be free and uncritical of oneself while creating!
I've been doing abstract artwork with Pre-K, Kindergarten,1st and 2nd graders and just having the best time teaching it. Each grade has used a different process and different materials. The basic goal is to do lots of layers of lines, shapes, and colors to build up an aesthetically pleasing piece of artwork that was super fun to make.
Enjoy these photos of the process and final work.
