Kandinsky Circles, Painting and Weaving

Credit goes to the talented Cassie Stephens. In my first year of teaching have found her blog extremely helpful and supportive in my journey. Students first painted circles in the style of Kandinsky. (mixing it all together is always a challenge to avoid). Students had a test run on a smaller plate, and then on the larger more sturdy chinet plate. The sturdy plate becomes the loom for the circle weaving. Cassie has really great, entertaining instructions on assembling the loom. I was a little less concerned with precision this time around so my children may have different number slits around the edge of their plate. What that caused was not the exact amount of over and unders so the children had to go over one then maybe under two. Despite that a good time was had by most and even the ones that struggled still felt accomplishment. As a weaver and fiber artist I really want to incorporate that skill set into the art program. 10/2019
