African Safari Silhouettes

5th Grade creates beautiful sunsets using watercolor techniques to create an African Silhouette scene. This project challenges the way we look at a shape, and how to pay attention to the negative space around and inside a shape. 




Table groups were given silhouette images of African animals and trees. While their sunsets were drying, we used pencil to draw the exterior contours of the animals and trees of our choice, then cutting them out.
