3rd Grade Project: Wassily Kandinsky - Kandinsky's Concentric Circles

The color studies of Wassily Kandinsky remained our inspiration for this project.  We attempted the very same color study that Kandinsky himself did in his 1913 "Concentric Circles" as seen below.
 

Kandinsky - Color Study: Squares with Concentric Circles - 1913

Using watercolors the students explored the different color combinations while trying to control the paint as they created larger and larger circles.  Once their circle reached the edge of the box, they then would paint in the background to complete that section.  Their compositions consisted of four of these circles.
