Fall Color Mixing Trees
By Color Me Creative Art Room
Bring fall color into the art room with a painting project designed specifically for Kindergarten and 1st Grade. In Fall Color Mixing Trees, students learn how artists mix and use warm fall colors while creating their own colorful autumn tree. Students paint a large tree trunk and branches, experiment with red and yellow to create orange and other fall color variations, and use brushes, cotton swabs, fingertips, or sponge daubers to create colorful leaf textures. The project is simple enough for young artists while still teaching meaningful art concepts and skills.
