Miro is one of my favorite artists! I have done an easy lesson using
line and shape with Kindergartners. We noticed that he uses alot of
primary colors, so a background was sponged with R, Y, B and white (on
manilla paper... omit if using white paper). The next period, when this
was dry, we studied his use of line and shape (geometric and organic).
Students used black tempera with q-tips to create lots of abstract
shapes and lines on top of the primary background. It was very simple to
do but the results were quite satisfying.
