Cravings

While my wardrobe is nearly 100% black, gray, and white, my painting palette is all the colors of the rainbow. I absolutely crave bursts of color!

Learning Colors - Part 2

A couple of weeks ago I created a poster for my classroom to help my students learn their colors. I was only half way done when I did that one. Now I've created the mate to that poster so now all of the colors are represented. On a side note I'm also taking an online course called Flower Power so my posters seem all the more appropriate. Can't beat flowers teaching children their colors, right? Now that's Flower Power!

The one on the right is the one I just completed.
The one on the left has already been laminated.
They'll be placed side by side on adjacent
cupboard doors. I'll get my students to write
the color names for each flower and tape
their writing on the posters.

If there's something you'd like, please let me know by message or comment so I can manually adjust the price. Thanks!!! http://www.dailypaintworks.com/artists/kali-parsons-3935/artwork

Learning Colors - Part 1

A couple of weeks ago I started making posters for my classroom. (I work with three and four-year-olds with disabilities.) Today I made the first of two posters to help my students learn colors. After I laminate this poster and get it hung up in my room, I'll work with my students to write the words for each color and we'll work on mastering color identification. I decided a flower garden would be a perfect representation of all of the colors. I'm excited to create its companion poster soon!

I sketched the flowers.

I began painting them.

I used five colors...five more to go!

I added stems, leaves, and grass.
