Wilson School / The Playground / grades 2-5






As part of our landscape series, this class focused on the playground. We went outside and drew from life capturing the kinds of lines, shapes, colors and textures that make the playground feel like a "fun" "lively" "bouncy" "free" "happy" "adventurous" place to be.  Our goal was not to show a highly realistic drawing but rather to express what the playground felt like to us.





Drawing Our Playground - An exploration of mood/atmosphere through lines and color.





Sometimes it's good to move around to get more than perspective.
