Watercolor Triptych
The triptych, or three-panel work of art, painting was the first assignment in the eighth grade curriculum. Students began the project by creating a color wheel. This activity enabled eighth graders to work on their ability to combine secondary and tertiary colors. While creating the color wheel students also worked on creating a value shift with the watercolor paint. Each student then selected a unique landscape and divided the image into three, equal sections. Each panel was then separately painted.
