Mixed Media Art with Mondrian



Piet Mondrian

Students identified the primary colors and geometric shapes in the paintings of Dutch artist Piet Mondrian.  We used similar color shapes and rectangles to make a collage.  Next, we built on our stamping skills from the last unit and added lines in a variety of directions by using cardboard scraps and black tempera.  Students learned that mixed media art is when artists use more than one type of art material in their work.
