Chinese Brush Painting
In this project, 5th and 6th grade students learned about the cultural heritage of brush painting in China. Then, they used India ink and soft-bristled Chinese brushes to create original paintings based on observation of photos of animals and plants. Students are encouraged to employ the artistic principle of economy, using as few marks as possible to achieve the greatest impact.
