More Surrealism - 2nd grade landscapes and clocks

The inspiration for this lesson came from a lesson posted here:

My 2nd graders looked at and discussed Dali's Persistence of Memory. Then we created our own distorted clocks on watercolor paper, outlined with Sharpie and painted with watercolors.

Next we created a simple landscape with 3 wavy lines, and painted by double-dipping 2 colors on our brushes. Then we used a Q-tip to paint some black trees and fences, using size and placement to show depth.

Finally, we cut out our clocks and glued them down, with a little bit of curve.
